  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Let’s get straight to the essentials. Here’s what you need to create this comforting dish:

  • 4 bone-in pork chops, about 1-inch thick
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms (button or cremini)
  • 2 cups fresh spinach leaves
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 tablespoon butter

If you’re missing an ingredient, don’t worry. Swap the cream for milk if you need, or use frozen spinach if that’s what you have. Remember, it’s all about working with what you’ve got and making it yours.

Instructions

Now let’s get to the fun part—cooking! Follow these steps to bring your Spinach Mushroom Pork Chops to life:

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the pork chops with salt, pepper, and thyme.
  2. Add the pork chops to the skillet and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chops and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and butter. Toss in the onions and sauté until translucent, about 3 minutes.
  4. Add the garlic and mushrooms, cooking until the mushrooms are tender and have released their juices, around 5 minutes.
  5. Pour in the chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the pan to release any browned bits. Let it simmer for a couple of minutes.
  6. Stir in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Add the spinach, stirring until it wilts.
  7. Return the pork chops to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let them cook for another 10-15 minutes until the pork is cooked through.
  8. Serve the pork chops topped with the creamy spinach mushroom mixture. Enjoy the flavors and the sense of accomplishment knowing you’ve just made a wholesome, satisfying meal.

Remember, don’t rush the simmering. Letting the flavors meld together is what makes this dish so special!
