Servings: 4 people
Calories: 326kcal
Ingredients
- 4 pork chops, bone in or boneless (about 1-inch thick)
- 1 teaspoon Seasoning salt (adjust to your taste)
- 1/3 teaspoon cracked black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Creamy Mushroom Sauce:
- 1 cup sliced brown mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley, divided
- 1 tablespoon fresh chopped thyme
- 4 cloves garlic crushed
- 3/4 cup reduced fat cream or half and half, (heavy cream or evaporated milk)
Instructions
- Season chops with seasoning salt and pepper. Heat oil and butter in a frying pan or skillet over medium-high until butter is melted.
- When pan is hot, sear chops for about 3-4 minutes per side until golden browned and the centre is no longer bright pink (fry in batches if you need to). Transfer to a warm plate. Set aside.
- Add the mushrooms to the buttery juices in the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes over medium heat. Scrape up any bits left over from the chops. When mushrooms are browned, add half parsley, half thyme and all of the crushed garlic; sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Pour in the cream and bring to a gentle simmer for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened. Season with salt and pepper, to your taste.
- Add the chops back into the sauce, allow to simmer for a minute to heat through. Garnish with remaining herbs and serve immediately.
Notes
Optional wine add-in for the creamy sauce: After sautéing the garlic in Step 3, add in 1/2 cup dry white wine. Let simmer until liquid has reduced by half (about 3 minutes). Then continue on to Step 4.
