Ingredients

• 4 boneless pork chops
• 250 g mushrooms cut into thin slices
• 1 onion cut into thin vertical slices
• 50 g butter
• 2 cloves garlic finely chopped
• 2 tsp dried thyme
• 2 tsp dried oregano
• ½ tsp smoked paprika
• 1 tbs balsamic vinegar
• 2 tbs all-purpose flour
• 360 ml vegetable broth
• 330 ml heavy cream
• salt
• pepper
• olive oil

Instructions

• Grease and season the chops well.
• Place a large pan over medium heat and let it get hot.
• Add the chops and let them sauté well on both sides until they brown.
• Remove the chops and place them aside on a plate.
• In the same pan, add the mushrooms, the onion, and the butter and sauté until the onion is soft.
• Add the garlic, thyme, oregano, paprika, vinegar, and flour and sauté for 3 more minutes.
• Place the chops back in the pan along with the broth, cover with a lid, and simmer over medium-low heat until the steaks are cooked. This will depend on the heat and the size and number of chops.
• Finally, add the heavy cream, simmer for a few more minutes without the lid until the sauce thickens, and serve with French fries, pasta or rice.
