These Pan Seared Pork Chops in a creamy, delicious, apple cider shallot pan sauce are the perfect weeknight, or date night, dinner. Serve over some garlic mashed potatoes or cheesy polenta! This dish will be absolutely perfect.
This pork chop recipe is easy, fast and a favorite way to make pan-fried pork chops. I use rib chops which don’t need much cooking time and are tender and juicy; perfect pork chops every time.
A simple apple cider cream sauce finishes the pork chops recipe with a delicious touch and very little effort.
The moist pork chops are an easy meal. A simple dry rub adds seasoning to thick-cut pork chops which then get a good sear and are finished in a easy pan sauce full of apple, fresh herbs and cream.
It all happens in a large skillet on the stove top and is ready in about 30 minutes. Serve with some mashed potatoes for a complete easy dinner.
