Honey, Mustard and Whiskey Glazed Pork Cutlets

I set about trying something different with Pork Cutlets as I have really over done the Sticky Pork Cutlets recipe and needed to cooked something different for fear of the family revolting at the dinner table.

So several cookbooks later and using my new found friend, Google, I came across a recipe which took my eye. After reading and reading, a few ingredient swaps here and there, I came up with Honey, Mustard and Whiskey Glazed Pork Cutlets.

Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 2-3 minutes or until sauce thickens slightly. Remove from heat. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
