A decadent yet keto-friendly dish featuring perfectly seared pork chops coated in a creamy garlic Parmesan sauce that elevates any meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lb Center Cut Boneless Pork Chops
  • Salt to taste
  • 0.5 teaspoon Pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 0.5 medium Onion, sliced
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream
  • 1 oz Cream Cheese
  • 1/3 cup Chicken Broth
  • 1/3 cup Parmesan Cheese
  • 0.5 cup Cheddar Cheese, grated
  • 1 tablespoon Italian Seasoning
  • Additional Salt and Pepper to adjust seasoning

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chops: begin by patting the pork chops dry with a paper towel. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Brown the chops: heat the olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops to the skillet, cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  3. Sauté the aromatics: in the same skillet, add the sliced onion and sauté until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for just 30 seconds until fragrant.
  4. Create the sauce: pour in the heavy whipping cream, then add the cream cheese. Whisk vigorously until the cream cheese melts into the cream. Mix in the chicken broth and bring to a gentle simmer.
  5. Thicken the sauce: gradually add the Parmesan and cheddar cheeses while stirring until melted and combined. Toss in the Italian seasoning, adjusting seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
  6. Combine and serve: return the pork chops to the skillet, spoon the creamy sauce over the top, and simmer for an additional minute.
  7. Plate and enjoy: serve the pork chops drenched in sauce and sprinkle with extra Parmesan if desired.

Notes
