Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 whole lemon, juiced
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 2 cups mushrooms, sliced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Pat the pork chops dry using paper towels and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the pork chops and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter to the same skillet. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are softened and slightly browned.
Add the chicken broth, lemon juice, and lemon zest to the skillet, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let the mixture simmer for 2-3 minutes.
Return the pork chops to the skillet and spoon the sauce over them. Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let the pork chops cook for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the pork chops and mushrooms just before serving for a fresh burst of flavor.
Serve the pork chops warm with the mushrooms and sauce spooned over the top. Pair with your favorite sides such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
