Hey everyone! I stumbled upon this mouthwatering recipe for garlic butter pork chops, and I just had to share it with you all. It's incredibly easy to make and tastes like a gourmet meal right in your own kitchen!
Ingredients:
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless pork chops
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped fresh parsley for garnish
- Start by seasoning both sides of the pork chops generously with salt and pepper. Let them sit at room temperature for about 15-20 minutes.
- In a skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and cook for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Place the seasoned pork chops in the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are nicely browned and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
- While the pork chops are cooking, in a small saucepan, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over low heat. Stir in the dried thyme and rosemary, and let it simmer gently for a couple of minutes to infuse the flavors.
- Once the pork chops are cooked, remove them from the skillet and transfer to a plate. Pour the garlic herb butter over the pork chops.
- Allow the pork chops to rest for a few minutes before serving to let the juices redistribute.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and added freshness.
- Serve these succulent garlic butter pork chops with your favorite sides like mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a crisp salad.
