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.
