Preparation Steps

For the Pork

Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels to ensure a nice sear.
Season liberally with kosher salt and pepper.
Wash the mushrooms.
Finely dice onions.
Mince garlic and fresh parsley.

Cooking Instructions

Heat a heavy-bottom pan over medium-high heat and add the clarified butter.
Wait for the butter to shimmer, and then add the pork chops.
Cook for 2-3 minutes per side or up to an internal temperature of 165°F. Remove and set aside.
Lower the heat to medium. Add mushrooms with a pinch of salt; cook for 1 minute.
Add onions and another pinch of salt. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently.
Add garlic (add a little olive oil if more fat is needed) and cook for 2 minutes, stirring.
Add the cream and stir to deglaze the pan; cook for 1-2 minutes.
Once the cream begins to thicken, turn off the heat. Stir in the unsalted butter and parsley.
Top the pork chops with the mushroom mixture and serve hot.
