Servings: 6
Equipment
Ingredients
- 4 tbsp clarified butter divided
- ⅛ tsp sea salt plus more as needed
- 6 thin cut pork chops for thick cut and bone in chops, add more cook time
- 6-10 cloves garlic sliced in half or finely diced (I like big chunks of garlic but realize most don't)
- 8 oz cremini mushrooms stems removed and wiped clean
- ½ cup white wine or chicken stock
- 1 pinch red pepper flakes depending on your desired spicy level
- ½ cup diced cilantro optional
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
Instructions
- Heat a heavy pan on medium high until very hot.
- Add 1/2 butter, swirl around pan, and let melt.
- Salt and pepper pork chops and add to pan.
- Cook pork chops 5 minutes on each side, until lovely golden brown.
- When pork chops are well browned, remove from pan - do not drain pan grease.
- If cooking thick-cut or bone-in pork chops, remove pork chops from pan and place on a cooling rack sitting over a baking sheet and continue to roast pork chops until they reach 145 degrees internal temperature when a meat thermometer is inserted into the thickest part. (Add pork back in when sauce is thickening below)
- Add mushrooms to pan, stirring occasionally to keep mushrooms from burning.
- Add second half of butter to pan, let melt.
- Add garlic to pan, stir well.
- Let garlic and mushrooms brown - about 4-6 minutes. Do not let garlic burn, reduce heat if needed.
- Add stock, lemon juice.
- Add red pepper flakes (add slowly according to your taste) and cilantro when mushrooms are lovely golden browned.
- Stir well, being sure to scrape up any browned bits from bottom of pan.
- Add pork chops back to pan, let sauce reduce another 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pork is 145 degrees internal temp.
- Remove from pan and serve immediately!
