Ingredients

• 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
• 3 pieces large russet potatoes
• 250 grams button mushrooms
• 4 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 4 pieces garlic cloves, minced
• 2 teaspoons fresh thyme
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1.5 teaspoons sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Peel and slice the potatoes into 1/4-inch rounds. Set aside.

Step 3

Clean the mushrooms and slice them into halves or quarters, depending on their size.

Step 4

Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and season both sides with 1/2 teaspoon of salt, paprika, and black pepper.

Step 5

In a large ovenproof skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 6

In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 more tablespoon of olive oil. Add the potatoes, sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and cook for 5 minutes, flipping occasionally, until they begin to brown.

Step 7

Add the mushrooms to the skillet, along with the remaining tablespoon of butter. Sauté for another 4-5 minutes until the mushrooms are tender.

Step 8

Stir in the minced garlic and thyme, cooking for another minute until fragrant.

Step 9

Pour the chicken broth into the skillet and bring it to a simmer. Taste the liquid and season with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt if needed.

Step 10

Return the pork chops to the skillet, nestling them into the potatoes and mushrooms.

Step 11

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) and the potatoes are tender.

Step 12

Remove the skillet from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
