Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Season both sides of the pork chops with salt and black pepper.
In a shallow dish, combine the flour, paprika, and garlic powder. Dredge each pork chop in the seasoned flour, shaking off any excess.
Heat olive oil and butter 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 pork chops from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the sliced onions. Cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté for an additional 2-3 minutes until the mushrooms are tender.
Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
Stir in the heavy cream and return the pork chops to the skillet. Spoon some of the sauce over the chops.
Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 20-25 minutes or until the pork chops are cooked through and tender.
Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving. Serve hot with mashed potatoes or rice for a complete meal.
