Ingredients

  • 4 boneless pork chops
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup corn kernels
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Directions

  1. Season the pork chops with salt and pepper on both sides.
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the pork chops and cook until browned, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add the onion and garlic. Cook until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.

  7. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the pork chops and sauce. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
  8. Serve the Creamy Corn Pork Chops hot with mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables on the side.
