Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bone-in pork chops
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel and season both sides with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Lower the heat to medium and melt the butter in the same skillet. Add the flour and whisk continuously for 1-2 minutes to create a roux.
Gradually pour in the chicken broth, whisking constantly to ensure there are no lumps. Allow the mixture to simmer for 2-3 minutes until it thickens slightly.
Stir in the heavy cream and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Return the seared pork chops to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over the top of each chop.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork chops reaches 145°F (63°C).
Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes.
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables.
