Savory Garlic and Mushroom Pork Chops

Ingredients

- 4 bone-in pork chops (about 1 inch thick)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup chicken broth

Instructions

1. Season the Pork Chops:
- Generously season both sides of the pork chops with salt and black pepper.

2. Brown the Pork Chops:
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the pork chops to the skillet and sear for about 3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown.
- Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set them aside.

3. Sauté the Aromatics:
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet.
- Add the minced garlic and sliced onion, cooking and stirring for about 3 minutes until the onion is soft and translucent.

4. Cook the Mushrooms:
- Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and continue to cook for another 4 minutes until the mushrooms are softened and browned.

5. Create the Sauce:
- Pour the chicken broth into the skillet, stirring to release any brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and let it reduce for about 5 minutes.

6. Finish Cooking the Pork Chops:
- Return the pork chops to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce and vegetables.
- Cover the skillet, reduce the heat to low, and cook for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the pork chops are cooked through and tender.

7. Serve:
- Remove the pork chops from the skillet and place them on serving plates.
- Spoon the garlic, onions, and mushrooms with sauce over each pork chop for a flavorful finish.
