Ingredients
- 4 boneless pork chops at least 1.5 inches thick
- 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup low sodium chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream see note
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper reduce to 1/4 teaspoon if using ground black pepper
- 3 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese, more for topping (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Rub pork chops all over with a bit of olive oil. Season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large oven-safe skillet (see note) over medium-high heat.
- Once butter is melted, drizzle in 1 tablespoon oil. Add the pork chops to the pan and sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until nicely browned. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
- Add remaining butter, garlic and mushrooms to the skillet, saute about 2 minutes until browned.
- Stir in chicken broth, cream, salt and pepper, and parmesan cheese.
- Transfer pork chops back to the pan and spoon some of the liquid over the pork chops so they are moistened on all sides.
- Transfer to pre-heated oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes until cooked through and sauce is thickened, spooning liquid from the pan over the pork chops 2-3 times throughout.
- Spoon mushroom sauce from the pan over the pork chops, garnish with additional cracked black pepper, parmesan cheese, and fresh herbs if desired, and serve.
Notes
- For a lighter version, you can substitute half and half for the heavy cream. The result will be delicious, though not as rich and creamy.
- I added whole garlic cloves for added garlic flavor and aesthetic.
- If you do not have an oven-safe skillet, you can complete steps 1-6 in a regular pan/skillet, then transfer the sauce and pork chops to a baking dish/casserole dish and bake as directed.
