Garlic Butter Mushroom Pork Chops Recipe - tender and juicy chops seared and simmered in garlicky butter and mushrooms. Quick dinner with a ton of flavor!
These pork chops are super quick to make and delicious, like my Pork Schnitzel. I like to serve both with my German Potato Salad or Mashed Cauliflower for a low carb dinner.
Just one bite of these juicy pork chops with garlicky butter and fragrant sauteed mushrooms will make you feel like you are eating a high-end restaurant meal. In fact, these pork chops are super easy to make and cook really quickly. The garlic mushroom sauce made with butter and just a little bit of water or stock perfectly pairs with pork.
These Garlic Butter Mushroom Pork Chops are perfect even for busy weeknights. They cook quickly and you can make the mushroom topping in just minutes. Serve the chops with roasted potatoes, Brussels sprouts, fried cabbage or broccoli for an easy dinner!
HOW TO COOK PORK CHOPS?
To start, heat up olive oil in a skillet. Cast iron skillet is what I use when cooking pork chops or chicken thighs because it results in a better sear. Season pork chops with salt and pepper on both sides. Cook each side for 3 to 4 minutes, or until golden brown. Check the temperature to make sure pork chops are cooked through. Remove chops onto a plate and set aside. Add butter to skillet and melt. Add garlic and mushrooms. Season with salt, pepper and smoked paprika. Add 1/4 cup of chicken stock or water and stir in with mushrooms. Add remaining butter, let melt and add pork chops back to skillet. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes. Serve pork chops with mashed or roasted potatoes or other vegetables.
For this recipe, I used bone-in pork chops. You can use what you have on hand. I recommend checking the internal temperature of your chops to make sure they are cooked through. Some pork chops are thicker than other so it's always to be safe and check if they are done with meat thermometer.
WHAT TO SERVE WITH PORK CHOPS?
I tend to always go for potatoes. Pork chops just fit the "meat and potatoes" type of dinner so well. You can go with yellow, red or even sweet potatoes. Also a great option are baked potatoes. More vegetables that go well with these pork chops are Brussels sprouts, broccoli, cauliflower, roasted carrots, green beans, spinach, creamed corn, etc.

Made this last night. Added some shallots and white wine. Restaurant quality. Made it with roasted asparagus and potatoes. It was like Christmas morning in my mouth
Brenda Wing says
Great recipe. Was wondering if the searing be done in oven since thinking on making 6 chops, then making sauce on stove top. Let me know, but again such a tasty way to make pork chops!
Diane says
So glad I found this recipe - it is quick, easy and most of all delicious! The baby bella mushrooms add so much flavor. I will make this again, again and again!!!
Anna says
Awesome! I am so glad the pork chops were a hit! Thank you, Diane!
Dee says
This turned out quite well. I used boneless instead bone in as supermarket was out, and meat was a little tough. Boyfriend loved the sauce, which I used 1/2 chicken bouillion cube and a little dijon mustard.. Served with Knorr's cheddar broccoli rice and black eyed peas.
Chad Zimmerman says
This is uber delicious and I've already sauteed a pork chop twice with equal results. And just tonight, I tried it with chicken breasts and butterflied them and it was delicious too!! What a wonderful and a recipe so simple (yes, this is proof that God wants us to be happy). Superb with a Southern Rhone red, Volnay or Cru Beaujolais!!!
Bree says
Very tasty and pork comes out tender. We doubled recipe to four boneless chops and added spinach at the end. It all comes together in about 30 minutes so this is a keeper. Thank you!
Kellea says
This had more flavor than I thought it would and was so fast and easy just like the recipe and previous reviews say! For my sides I made mashed potatoes and fresh asparagus and was divine!
Shae says
This was a huge hit for dinner! I was looking for a new way to cook pork chops, and I just happened to have all these ingredients on hand (except the mushrooms, I used cremini), and wow, thanks so much for this delicious recipe!
My pork chops were very dry and tough, but that is only because of my novice cooking experience and I cooked them way too long (I have a fear of under cooked meat and can't sear worth beans) . Although taking a bite of chop along with a savory garlicky mushroom made it better, so no complaints from me! Will definitely make again!
CP says
I love this recipe so much!! The pork chops come out so moist and tender on the inside and a little bit crispy on the outside to seal in the juices.
SG says
Delicious! I had to eat more than one. My husband said it was delicious too. Thank you
Julie says
I made this tonight with boneless pork loin and it was fabulous! Don’t try this in a non-stick pan because I think the cast iron is key. And it doesn’t hurt to add an extra tablespoon of butter! I’ll definitely make this one again and again.
Anna says
Thank you so much, Julie!
Danielle says
I've been making pork chops for years but this is absolutely the best recipe I've ever made!
I used thick, boneless chops and they were still delicious.
Thank you!
Anna says
That's wonderful! Thank you so much, Danielle!
Gabriel Mullen says
Phenomenal. I make this all the time, and I add extra paprika and a shallot to the mushrooms. Works a charm!
Anna says
Thank you, Gabriel! I am so glad the pork chops were a success!

Great for one person. I used half of the ingredients. I used 1/4 teaspoon minced garlic in jar for 1 pork chop. Used rest of mushrooms on mashed potatoes with mushroom gravy.J

This is an every other week dinner on our menu. I doubled the recipe to accommodate the extra chops. My little who has a very picky palate loves this.

Deon says
I made this tonight and it was amazing. My chops were real think so I had to cook longer but OMG they were great. I also added 1Tablespoons of corn starch that made the gravy nice and thick. So going to make again. And I have never been a huge pork chop fan but these are amazing.
Anna says

Soooooo amazingly delicious! I wasn’t able to simmer the chop back in the pan but made sure that they were done when plating and topped with the mushroom sauce. Thank you!
Anna says
Thank you so much, Michelle! I am so glad the pork chops were a hit!
april says
made this for lunch just now, perfect timing + temp for the chop, it came out so juicy. I had it with brussels sprouts and potatoes, cause it’s what I had. Also, I added some gochugaru, a Korean spice, to give the meat a little kick. Thanks for the post and recipe!
Tracy says
Looks so good. Going to try tonight. One question....is the nutrition facts you provided per pork chop or for 2 pork chops. Sorry if this seems like a silly question.
Anna@CrunchyCreamySweet says
Hi Tracy! Not a silly question at all. The calorie count is per serving, so per pork chop. I hope this helps and I hope you love the dish!
Kristen says
I add onions and spinach, soo delicious!!
Anna@CrunchyCreamySweet says
I love your additions, Kristen! Thank you!
Cindy says
Looks delicious! How thick are the pork chops you used?
Heather MacArthur says
This is soooooo delicious!
Anna@CrunchyCreamySweet says
I am so glad you love it! Thank you, Heather!
Ronda Deweese says
Can I make this in my instant pot?! What would you recommend on directions?
Anna@CrunchyCreamySweet says
Hi Ronda! I did not test this recipe in the Instant Pot so I can't guarantee the result. You can try this: follow steps 1-5 in the Instant Pot (add 1/2 cup of water or stock). Skip step 6 and cook them on HIGH pressure for 15 minutes. Let the pressure release naturally. I hope this helps! Again, I did not test this recipe in my IP so I can't guarantee the result.
Adam says
Hands down the best pork chops I've ever made! My wife was so impressed! Thank you for the recipe!
Linda Raufer says
If I add a little cream to the sauce, what do you think.
Anna@CrunchyCreamySweet says
Hi Linda! That will work! 😀
Jamee Smith says
My family loved these! Great flavor & the pork chops we're perfectly moist cooked 3 minutes on each side.

Hi Jamee! YAY! That's fantastic! I am so happy to know you and your family love the pork chops. Thank you so much!
Diane says
These were absolute perfection.
Victoria says
I made this today so easy and good! I added onions to made it so yummy. I'm not a cook but so simple.
Lance Nord says
Excellent... the family loved it. I served this with herb roasted baby potatoes (and veggies). The gravy was a perfect compliment to the potatoes. Thank you.
Jennyve Borbon says
Thanks for sharing these recipe my son and husband like it and of me too 😘🤗 God bless you and I’ll serve every time we have special gathering now😘😊
Gidget says
If you are making 8 chops do you multiply everything by 4? I ask because that would be 16 T of butter. Just want to make sure the mushroom part is the right consistency. I am going to make tonight for dinner.
Anna@CrunchyCreamySweet says
Yep, I would multiply by 4. Let me know how you like the dish!
Gidget says
My hubby and I made this tonight and we loved it! We will definitely be adding this to one of our dinner choices!
Anna@CrunchyCreamySweet says
Woohoo! I am so happy that it was a hit! Thank you so much, Gidget!
