These garlic butter pork chops are so easy to make with so much flavor. They are so tender and will melt in your mouth, your family will love this easy-to-make meal.
It's no secret that I love cooking in my cast iron skillets. These pork chops are so easy to make, you can have a meal on the table in about 30 minutes. I used my Lodge 12-inch cast iron skillet for this delicious recipe. Browned on the stovetop and then oven baked with the garlic butter.
What I used for Garlic Butter Pork Chops:
2 pork chops 3/4 to 1-inch thick
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons butter (Melted)
4 cloves garlic (3 cloves pressed into butter 1 clove minced in pan)
2 cups sliced mushrooms (Optional)
Salt and Pepper to taste.
Directions for Garlic Butter Pork Chops:
- Melt the 3 tablespoons of butter in the microwave, and using a garlic press add 3 cloves of garlic and give it a good stir. Set aside for later.
- Add the olive oil to the bottom of the skillet and let heat up over medium heat.
- Salt and pepper the pork chops to taste.
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
- Add the clove of minced garlic to the pan and then the pork chops.
- Brown the pork chops for about 2 to 4 minutes per side.
- Add the mushrooms after the 1st side is browned.
- Pour the garlic butter over the pork chops and place the pan in the oven.
- Bake until the internal temperature of the pork chops is at least 145 to 150 degrees.
