Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6-8 oz each) Bone-in pork chops
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth
- 2 cloves Minced garlic
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the pork chops and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 145°F). Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside to rest.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the unsalted butter to the same skillet. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Pour in the chicken broth and deglaze the skillet by scraping up any browned bits stuck to the bottom. Let the broth simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.
Stir in the heavy cream, fresh parsley, fresh thyme leaves, and grated Parmesan cheese. Simmer the sauce for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until it thickens slightly.
Return the pork chops to the skillet and spoon the creamy herb sauce over them. Let them cook in the sauce for 2-3 minutes to warm through and absorb the flavors.
Serve the pork chops hot, topped with extra sauce and garnished with additional fresh parsley if desired. Enjoy!
