✅ Ingredients

For the Pork Chops

  • 4 boneless or bone-in pork chops

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 1 tsp black pepper

  • 1 tsp paprika

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

For the Garlic Butter Sauce

  • 4 tbsp butter

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tbsp fresh thyme or rosemary

  • ½ cup chicken broth

  • 1 tbsp lemon juice (optional but brightens the sauce)

  • 2 tbsp heavy cream (optional for richer sauce)

  • Fresh parsley for garnish

✅ Instructions

1. Season the pork chops

Pat pork chops dry, then season both sides with salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.

2. Sear the chops

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork chops and sear:

  • Boneless: 3–4 minutes per side

  • Bone-in: 4–5 minutes per side
    Remove and set aside.

3. Make the garlic butter sauce

In the same skillet, melt the butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Stir in chicken broth and herbs. Scrape up any browned bits — that’s where the flavor is!

Optional: Add lemon or heavy cream for extra richness.

4. Return the pork to the pan

Place pork chops back in the skillet. Spoon sauce over them and let simmer for 3–5 minutes until cooked through and juicy.

5. Serve

Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot with mashed potatoes, rice, roasted vegetables, or pasta.

✅ Tips for Perfect Pork Chops

  • Don’t overcook — pork is best at 145°F (63°C).

  • Bone-in chops = juicier.

  • Let them rest for 2–3 minutes before serving.

  • Add mushrooms or spinach to the pan for a complete meal.
