Here’s a comforting, hearty recipe for Pork Chops with Potatoes in a Creamy Sauce 🥩🥔🍲
Pork Chops with Potatoes in Creamy Sauce
Ingredients
- 4 bone-in or boneless pork chops
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or butter
- 3–4 medium potatoes, peeled and sliced thinly
- 1 small onion, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme or rosemary
- ½ cup grated Parmesan or shredded cheese (optional)
Instructions
1. Prepare Pork Chops
- Season pork chops with salt and pepper.
- Heat oil or butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Sear pork chops 3–4 minutes per side until golden. Remove and set aside.
2. Cook Potatoes & Onions
- In the same skillet, add onions and garlic, sauté 2–3 minutes.
- Add sliced potatoes and cook for another 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Make the Creamy Sauce
- Pour in chicken broth and bring to a simmer.
- Stir in heavy cream and thyme/rosemary. Let simmer 5–7 minutes until slightly thickened.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Combine & Cook
- Return pork chops to the skillet, nestling them among the potatoes.
- Cover and simmer on low heat 10–15 minutes, until pork chops are cooked through and potatoes are tender.
- Optional: sprinkle cheese on top and cover until melted.
5. Serve
- Serve hot with a spoonful of creamy sauce over the pork and potatoes.
Tips
- Use thin-sliced potatoes for faster cooking, or pre-boil for 5 minutes.
- Bone-in pork chops stay juicier, but boneless work fine too.
- Add vegetables like carrots or peas to make it a one-pan meal.
I can also give you a baked version where the pork chops and potatoes cook together in the oven with creamy sauce for even easier prep.
