Season pork chops on both sides with salt, black pepper, and paprika.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the pork chops and sear for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside.
Lower the heat to medium and add the butter to the skillet. Once melted, add the sliced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the garlic and mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms release their moisture and start to brown.
Sprinkle the flour over the mushroom mixture and stir to coat evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
Gradually pour in the chicken broth while stirring, ensuring no lumps form. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes until the gravy thickens.
Stir in the heavy cream and mix well. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
Return the pork chops to the skillet, nestling them into the gravy. Spoon some gravy over the chops, cover the skillet, and simmer on low heat for 10 minutes or until the pork chops are cooked through and reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve hot with your choice of mashed potatoes, rice, or crusty bread.
