Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • to taste Fresh parsley for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Season the pork chops with salt, pepper, paprika, and thyme.
  3. In a large oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned.
  4. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside.
  5. In the same skillet, add garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds.
  6. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer, scraping the browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
  7. Return the pork chops to the skillet and add butter, spooning some of the broth over the chops.
  8. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
  9. Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving, garnished with fresh parsley.

Notes

To store leftover pork chops, place them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, microwave until warmed through or heat in a skillet over low heat.
