Cream of Mushroom Pork Chops

Instructions

1. 1
   Pat pork chops dry and season with salt and pepper on both sides.
2. 2
   Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear pork chops for 3 minutes per side until browned. Remove and set aside.
3. 3
   Add diced onion to skillet and sauté for 2 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook until browned and tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook for 1 minute.
4. 4
   Pour in cream of mushroom soup, chicken broth, and thyme. Stir until well blended, scraping up any browned bits.
5. 5
   Return pork chops (plus any juices) to the skillet. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10-12 minutes until pork chops reach 145°F. Spoon sauce over chops occasionally.
6. 6
   Uncover and simmer an extra 2 minutes if you like a thicker sauce. Taste and season with extra salt and pepper if needed. Sprinkle with parsley and serve hot.
