Ingredients:

• 4 pork chops (bone-in or boneless, about 1 inch thick)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Pork Chops:
   • Season the pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper.
2. Sear the Pork Chops:
   • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
   • Add the pork chops and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set them aside.
3. Cook the Onion and Garlic:
   • In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and garlic. Sauté for about 3 minutes, or until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant.
4. Make the Sauce:
   • Pour in the chicken broth and bring it to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
   • Stir in the heavy cream, sour cream, Dijon mustard, thyme, and rosemary. Let the sauce simmer for a few minutes until it thickens slightly.
5. Combine and Cook:
   • Return the pork chops to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over them.
   • Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let the pork chops cook for about 10-15 minutes, or until they are cooked through and tender. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
6. Serve:
   • Transfer the pork chops to a serving platter and spoon the sauce over the top.
   • Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.

Tips:

• For an extra layer of flavor, you can add a splash of white wine to the sauce.
• Serve with mashed potatoes, rice, or steamed vegetables to complete the meal.
