Ingredients

• 4 pieces pork chops
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 1 pound asparagus, trimmed
• 8 ounces sliced mushrooms
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Season both sides of the pork chops with salt, pepper, and paprika.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove chops from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter to the skillet. When melted, add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the asparagus and mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the asparagus is tender and the mushrooms are browned. Remove vegetables from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

Deglaze the skillet by pouring in the chicken broth, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Pour in the heavy cream and stir well. Allow the sauce to simmer for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.

Step 7

Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Step 8

Return the pork chops, asparagus, and mushrooms to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top. Simmer everything together for about 5 minutes or until the pork chops are cooked through (internal temperature of 145°F).

Step 9

Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy!
