*INSTRUCTIONS
I
have 4 center-cut chops here, and I’m going to season them with a generous amount of salt and black pepper.
You will need to slice 1 white onion and slice 8 ounces of mushrooms, and you can use white or cremini mushrooms for this.
Next, we’re going to take our chops to the stove, where I have a heavy cast iron skillet that heats up over medium-high heat.
We will sear them until they are golden brown, about 3 or 4 minutes on each side.

So once mine are seared, I’m going to transfer them to a baking dish, and I’m going to finish them in the oven.
Looking for an internal temperature of 145 degrees on these pork chops.
Next, we will add a little olive oil to this pan, and we will add the mushrooms and onion and sauté them.
These will take about 5-7 minutes to become tender.
Once these are soft, we will add 2 tablespoons of butter, and let it melt, and 2 minced garlic cloves.
We’re going to let this garlic sauté for about 60 seconds while the butter also melts.
Once the butter is melted, you sprinkle in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and mix until you no longer see any white dots.
Then we will pour 2 cups of chicken broth.
Then we’re going to kind of mix that up and bring it to a boil, and as it heats up, that flour will thicken things up into a nice sauce.
Next, I’m going to take my chops out of the oven, then put them back with this sauce.
Your smothered pork chops are ready!
You didn’t tell us at what temperature and for how long to cook chops.
This sounds yummy. About how long do you leave the pork chops in the oven?
