Garlic Pork Chops in Creamy Mushroom Sauce 🍄🥩

[lizasoberan]

Hey foodies! I just tried this recipe last night, and OMG, it was a total hit! If you’re into rich, creamy sauces and tender pork chops, you’ve GOT to try this. Here’s how I made it:

Ingredients:

• 4 pork chops (bone-in or boneless, your choice)
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 3 tbsp butter
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 cup mushrooms, sliced (I used baby bella, but use your favorite!)
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup chicken broth
• 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 tsp dried thyme (or fresh, if you have it!)
• Optional: chopped parsley for garnish

Steps:

1. Season the chops: Sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of the pork chops.
2. Sear the chops: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
3. Cook the mushrooms: In the same skillet, melt the butter. Add the garlic and mushrooms, and sauté for about 5 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and fragrant.
4. Make the sauce: Pour in the chicken broth, scraping up any brown bits from the pan (flavor alert!). Add the heavy cream, Parmesan, and thyme. Stir it all together and let it simmer for 3-4 minutes until it thickens slightly.
5. Finish it off: Return the pork chops to the skillet, spoon the sauce over them, and let them simmer for another 5-7 minutes until the chops are fully cooked.
6. Garnish and serve: Sprinkle some parsley on top and serve it up with mashed potatoes, rice, or crusty bread to soak up that sauce!
   

This dish is creamy, garlicky, and SO comforting. Let me know if you try it or if you’d tweak anything!
