Pork Chops in Garlic Mushroom Sauce

This is a tasty entree that is a 30-minute meal and fancy enough for company. The mushroom sauce is wonderful not only for the pork but also for your side dish. Mashed potatoes, rice, or pasta would work well with it. You can use bone-in or boneless pork chops. I personally prefer bone-in as I think they have more flavor. Make sure to adjust cooking times based on the thickness of your pork chops. Bone-in will also take a bit longer to cook. Using a digital thermometer, the internal temperature should be 145F.

I also like an iron skillet for searing the pork, but any pan will work. Choose your favorite mushrooms like Bella or buttons. Traditionally, butter was used in this dish. I am suggesting olive oil if you need to reduce your fat intake or even a mix of olive oil and butter. I like the combination of rich flavors.
