Ingredients

• 4 pieces Pork chops (bone-in or boneless)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 0.5 cup Dry sherry
• 0.5 cup Chicken broth
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Season the pork chops on both sides with paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Sear the pork chops in the hot skillet for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove them from the pan and set aside.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to medium and melt the butter in the same skillet.

Step 6

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

Step 7

Pour in the dry sherry and chicken broth, stirring to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.

Step 8

Bring the mixture to a simmer and let cook for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.

Step 9

Return the pork chops to the skillet, spoon some of the sauce over the top, and transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.

Step 10

Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork chops reaches 145°F (63°C).

Step 11

Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and let the pork chops rest for 3-5 minutes.

Step 12

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve with your favorite side dishes, such as mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables.
