Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Season the pork chops with salt, black pepper, and paprika on both sides.
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops for 3 minutes per side until they are golden-brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Lower the heat to medium and melt the butter in the same skillet. Add the sliced onion and minced garlic, cooking until translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the shredded cabbage and cook, stirring occasionally, for 6-8 minutes until softened.
Pour in the chicken broth and simmer for 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to combine.
Add the heavy cream and cream cheese to the skillet, stirring until the cream cheese is fully melted and the mixture forms a smooth, creamy sauce.
In a 9x13-inch casserole dish, spread the cabbage mixture evenly on the bottom.
Nestle the seared pork chops on top of the cabbage.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the pork chops and cabbage.
Cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let the casserole rest for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
