Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bone-in pork chops
- 12 leaves Fresh sage leaves
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth
- 0.25 cup Heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels, then season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
Step 2
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Step 3
Once the oil is hot, sear the pork chops for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they develop a golden-brown crust. Remove chops from the skillet and set aside.
Step 4
Lower the heat to medium and add the butter to the skillet. Once melted, add the garlic (minced) and sage leaves. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring, until fragrant.
Step 5
Pour in the chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.
Step 6
Stir in the heavy cream and lemon juice, then return the pork chops to the skillet. Reduce the heat to low and let the chops simmer in the sauce for 5-7 minutes, or until they are cooked through (internal temperature of 145°F).
Step 7
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Step 8
Serve the pork chops topped with the sage butter sauce, pairing them with your choice of sides like mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables.
