Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat a large skillet over medium heat.
Season the pork chops on both sides with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Add the olive oil to the skillet and let it heat until shimmering.
Sear the pork chops for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they develop a nice golden-brown crust. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set them aside.
Lower the heat to medium and add the butter to the skillet. Once melted, stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute to create a roux.
Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, ensuring there are no lumps. Then stir in the heavy cream.
Reduce the heat to low and add the shredded cheddar cheese and Parmesan cheese. Stir until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth.
Return the pork chops to the skillet, spooning some of the cheesy sauce over the top.
Cover the skillet and let the pork chops simmer in the sauce for 10-12 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C).
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve hot.
