Ingredients
- Pork Chops: 4 boneless pork chops (about 1 inch thick), 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- For Searing: 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- Mushroom Sauce: 1 (10.5 oz / 300 g) can condensed cream of mushroom soup, 1/2 cup (120 ml) low-sodium chicken broth, 1/2 cup (120 ml) heavy cream, 1 small onion (finely chopped), 8 oz (225 g) cremini or white mushrooms (sliced), 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 teaspoon dried thyme (or 1 tablespoon fresh, chopped), salt and black pepper to taste, 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
- Season Pork Chops:
- Pat pork chops dry and season both sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
