Ingredients
Scale
Main Proteins:
- 4 bone-in pork chops
Vegetables and Aromatics:
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 8 ounces cremini mushrooms
Liquids and Seasonings:
- ½ cup dry white wine
- 1 cup chicken broth
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- Salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Pat 4 bone-in pork chops completely dry with paper towels. Season each chop generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat at 400F. Sear pork chops for exactly 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Transfer chops to a separate plate.
- Reduce skillet heat to medium. Add thinly sliced onion and cook for 5-7 minutes until softened and translucent.
- Drop minced garlic into skillet. Stir constantly for 60 seconds until aromatic. Toss in 8 ounces sliced cremini mushrooms.
- Cook mushrooms for 5-6 minutes until they release moisture and start to brown. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Pour ½ cup white wine into skillet. Scrape bottom of pan to release browned bits. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until wine reduces slightly.
- Add 1 cup chicken broth and ½ cup heavy cream. Stir ingredients together until well combined.
- Mix in 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon chopped thyme, and 1 tablespoon chopped parsley. Season with salt and pepper.
- Lower skillet temperature to 325F. Return pork chops to sauce, nestling them gently. Cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes.
- Check pork chop internal temperature reaches 145F. Remove lid and stir in 2 tablespoons butter until melted.
- Spoon sauce generously over chops. Sprinkle additional fresh parsley on top before serving immediately.
Notes
- Choose thick, bone-in pork chops for maximum flavor and juiciness, which help prevent the meat from drying out during cooking.
- Pat the pork chops completely dry before seasoning to ensure a perfect golden-brown sear that locks in moisture and creates a delicious crust.
- Use a meat thermometer to check internal temperature, as overcooking makes pork chops tough and dry, while 145F guarantees tender, juicy meat.
- For a gluten-free version, replace the flour slurry with cornstarch or skip the thickening step, which still produces a delicious sauce with slightly thinner consistency.
