Peel the russet potatoes and slice them into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Rinse the slices under cold water to remove excess starch, then pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Season the pork chops on both sides with salt, black pepper, and paprika. Let them sit at room temperature for 10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and butter to the skillet. Once the butter is melted, add the potatoes in a single layer. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until lightly golden.
Mince the garlic and add it to the skillet along with the rosemary sprigs. Stir gently to coat the potatoes with the aromatic mixture.
Carefully pour in the chicken broth and bring it to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and return the pork chops to the skillet, nestling them between the potatoes.
Cover the skillet with a lid and let everything cook for 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender and the pork chops are cooked through (internal temperature of 145Β°F/63Β°C).
Remove the lid and stir in the heavy cream. Let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes to thicken slightly, stirring occasionally.
Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the top before serving. Plate the pork chops alongside the creamy potatoes and spoon the sauce over each serving.
