Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small sweet onion diced small
- 8 ounces button mushrooms chopped
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 4 boneless pork chops about 1-1/2 inches thick
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 lemon zested & juiceed
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter divided
- fresh parsley finely chopped, for garnish
- lemon slices for garnish
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add onion and mushrooms and saute for 4-5 minutes, until tender. Add garlic and cook an additional 30 seconds.
- Move the veggies to the side of the pan.
- Season the pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper. Add pork chops to the center of the skillet and cook for 4 minutes, until well browned. Turn over and cook an additional 2 minutes.
- Zest the lemon and sprinkles the top of each pork chop with some lemon zest and a 1/2 tablespoon pat of butter.
- Cover the pan and cook for 8-10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the pork chops. Use a meat thermometer to check the temperature and remove from heat when pork has reached an internal temp of 150 degrees F.
- Let the pork chops rest for 10 minutes.
- Squeeze lemon juice over pork chops and serve with mushroom and onion mixture on top. I like to add a slice of lemon and chopped parsley on top too.
