Pork Chops with Creamy Mushroom Sauce

(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Pork

Ingredients

  • 4 bone-in pork chops, 1/2- 3/4 inch thick (about 2 pounds), trimmed
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • ⅓ cup minced shallots
  • 8 ounces sliced mixed mushrooms, such as cremini, shiitake & oyster
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • ⅓ cup half-and-half
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh herbs, such as chives, tarragon and/or parsley

Directions

  1. Sprinkle pork chops with ¼ teaspoon salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and add 2 pork chops. Cook, turning once, until cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove to a plate and tent with foil. Repeat with another 1 tablespoon oil and the remaining chops. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the pan. Add shallots and mushrooms; cook, stirring frequently until the mushrooms are browned, 2 to 4 minutes.

  2. Add wine and the remaining ¼ teaspoon salt; cook, stirring up any browned bits, until the liquid is mostly evaporated, 1 to 3 minutes. Stir in half-and-half and herbs; cook until bubbling, about 1 minute more. Serve the chops with the mushroom sauce.
