Description

Creamy Baked Pork Chops are a flavorful, tender dish made with juicy pork chops smothered in a rich, garlicky cream sauce. This easy recipe combines heavy cream, garlic, and herbs to create a comforting, restaurant-quality meal in under an hour. Perfect for a cozy family dinner, these pork chops are baked to perfection and pair well with mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables.


Ingredients

  • 4 bone-in pork chops
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Season pork chops with salt, pepper, paprika, and thyme.
  • Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side until browned.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together cream, chicken broth, garlic, and Dijon mustard.
  • Pour the cream mixture over the pork chops in the skillet.
  • Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes until pork chops are cooked through (internal temperature should reach 145°F).
  • Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot with extra sauce.

Notes

  • For a thicker sauce, simmer the cream mixture on the stove for a few minutes before baking.
  • Bone-in pork chops add flavor, but boneless chops can also be used. Adjust cooking time if using thinner cuts.
