Ingredients

• 4 pieces Bone-in pork chops
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1 large Yellow onion, thinly sliced
• 1 cup Button mushrooms, sliced
• 2 cups Chicken broth
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Season the pork chops with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.

Step 2

Place the all-purpose flour in a shallow dish. Dredge each pork chop in the flour, coating both sides, and shake off any excess flour.

Step 3

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, sear the pork chops for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set them aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the sliced onions. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften.

Step 5

Add the sliced mushrooms to the onions and cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until the mushrooms release their moisture and begin to brown.

Step 6

Pour the chicken broth into the skillet, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Stir well to combine.

Step 7

Return the seared pork chops to the skillet. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 20 minutes, allowing the pork chops to cook through and the flavors to meld together.

Step 8

Stir in the heavy cream and cook for another 5 minutes, uncovered, letting the sauce thicken slightly.

Step 9

Taste the gravy and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.

Step 10

Serve the smothered pork chops hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley if desired. Pair with mashed potatoes, rice, or buttered greens for a complete meal.
