Cream Of Mushroom Pork Chops
This classic creamy mushroom pork chops recipe brings comfort to your table with minimal effort. It’s a simple, comforting meal that will quickly become a family favorite.
Key Ingredients & Tips for Creamy Mushroom Pork Chops
- Use bone-in or boneless chops: Both work well, but bone-in can add more flavor and prevent drying out.
- Brown the pork chops well: Getting a nice sear on the chops before adding the sauce builds a deep flavor base for your dish.
- Don’t overcook: Pork chops can dry out quickly. Cook them until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F for the best texture.
What You Need
- 4 pork chops
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
- 1/2 onion, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon oil
⏱️ Time: 30 minutes🍽️ Yields: 4 servings
How to Make It
Step 1: Sear the Pork Chops
Season your pork chops with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chops for 3-4 minutes per side until nicely browned. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
Step 2: Make the Creamy Sauce
In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and sliced mushrooms. Cook for 5-7 minutes until they are soft. Stir in the cream of mushroom soup and milk until the sauce is smooth.
Step 3: Simmer and Serve
Return the seared pork chops to the skillet, making sure they are covered in the sauce. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the pork chops are cooked through and tender.

Step 2: Build the Boursin Sauce
In the same skillet, add the minced shallot and cook for 1-2 minutes until soft. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute. Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer.

These creamy spinach mushroom pork chops are hearty, satisfying, and packed with goodness. This recipe adds fresh vegetables to your meal in a delicious way.
Key Ingredients & Tips for Creamy Spinach Mushroom Pork Chops
