Ingredients

• 4 pieces Bone-in pork chops
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 cup Chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt, black pepper, and 1 tablespoon of Cajun seasoning.

Step 2

Lightly dredge the pork chops in all-purpose flour, shaking off excess.

Step 3

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter.

Step 4

When the butter is melted and sizzling, add the pork chops to the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 145°F). Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside to rest.

Step 5

Lower the heat to medium. In the same skillet, add the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter and allow it to melt and brown, about 2 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent burning.

Step 6

Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 7

Stir in the chicken broth and the remaining 1 tablespoon of Cajun seasoning. Simmer the sauce for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it slightly thickens.

Step 8

Return the pork chops to the skillet and spoon the browned garlic butter sauce over them. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to warm through.

Step 9

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy!
