Pork Chops with Mushroom Sauce

ACTIVE TIME: 25 min. TOTAL TIME: 45 min. SERVES: 6

These tender chops are even tastier smothered in a luscious quick-prep pan sauce that's spruced up with wine, garlic and heavy cream

  • 6 center-cut bone-in pork chops
  • 2 Tbs. olive oil
  • 2 cups mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 small red onion, chopped
  • 1/4 cup dry white wine
  • ¼ cup heavy cream
  • 6 cloves garlic, halved
  • 2 Tbs. chopped fresh chives

1 Season pork chops with 1/2 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper. In large skillet, heat 1 Tbs. oil over medium-high heat; in batches, add chops and cook, flipping once, until no longer pink near bone, about 4 min. per side. Transfer to plate; reserve pan juices.

2 In same skillet, heat remaining 1 Tbs. oil over medium heat. Add mushrooms and onion; cook, stirring often, until mushrooms are golden brown and onion has started to soften, about 5 min.

3 Add wine, heavy cream, garlic and chives. Cook, stirring often, until thickened, about 5 min. Stir in reserved pan juices. Serve mushroom sauce over pork chops.
