Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bone-in pork chops
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 medium (finely chopped) Onion
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 2 sprigs Fresh thyme
- 1 tablespoon (chopped) Fresh parsley
Instructions
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and season them on both sides with salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and sear them for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the pork chops and set aside.
Lower the heat to medium and add the butter to the skillet. Once the butter is melted, add the minced garlic and chopped onion. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until soft and fragrant.
Pour in the chicken broth and use a wooden spoon to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Let the mixture simmer for 2 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream and thyme sprigs. Return the pork chops to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them.
Cover the pan and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the pork chops are cooked through (internal temperature should reach 145°F or 63°C).
Remove the thyme sprigs and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve the Continental Pork Chops hot with your choice of sides such as mashed potatoes, steamed vegetables, or crusty bread.
