Total Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients 

  • 3 pork chops (about 1-inch thick)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 10.5 oz mushrooms, sliced
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 5 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup broth (chicken or vegetable)
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/3 tsp salt
  • 1/3 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • Fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  • Pat the pork chops dry and season both sides with salt and black pepper. Heat a large skillet over high heat and sear the pork chops for about 5 minutes per side, until nicely golden. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, cook the mushrooms over medium heat until they release their liquid and start to turn golden.
  • Add the butter to the skillet, then stir in the onion. Cook until softened and translucent. Add the garlic and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, just until fragrant.
  • Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and onions and stir for about 2 minutes to cook off the raw flour taste.
  • Slowly pour in the broth while stirring. Add the soy sauce and heavy cream, then season with salt, black pepper, and thyme. Let the sauce gently simmer for 1 to 2 minutes, until smooth and slightly thickened.
  • Return the pork chops to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top. Cover and simmer for about 5 minutes, until the pork is cooked through and tender.
  • Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
