Ingredients

  • 4 boneless pork chops (about 1/2" thick)
  • ¾ tsp salt (or to taste)
  • ¼ tsp black pepper (or to taste)
  • ½ tsp paprika (or to taste)
  • 3 Tbsp unsalted butter (divided)
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 8 oz mushrooms (white or brown) (sliced)
  • ½ medium onion (finely chopped)
  • 2 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1 Tbsp flour
  • 1 tsp hot sauce
  • 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
  • 1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 Tbsp parsley (optional garnish)

Directions

  1. 1

    Season pork chops with salt, pepper and paprika. Heat 1 Tbsp butter and 2 tsp oil in a large pan over med/high heat. Once hot, sear chops 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove pork chops and cover to keep warm.

  2. 2

    In the same pan, add 1 Tbsp butter and sliced mushrooms. Cook 2 minutes over medium heat, or until lightly golden.

  3. 3

    Add 1 Tbsp butter and onions. Lightly season with salt and pepper. Cook 3-4 minutes, until onions are tender. 

  4. 4

    Add minced garlic and saute 30 seconds, stirring frequently. Add flour and stir vigorously for 30 seconds.

  5. 5

    Add the chicken broth, hot sauce, whipping cream and season with salt and pepper to taste. Simmer 2 minutes, or until cream begins to thicken. Add pork chops back to the skillet and cover with the mushroom sauce. 

  6. 6

    Reduce heat to low and simmer 5-8 minutes, allowing the pork chops to become tender and the flavors of the mushroom sauce to penetrate into the pork chops. Garnish if desired and serve.
