🥘Ingredients

Ingredients

4 pork chops
2 medium potatoes
1 onion
2 cloves garlic
1 cup milk
1 cup chicken broth
2 tbsp flour
2 tbsp butter
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp paprika
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

👨‍🍳Directions

1Preheat oven to 375°F.
2Start by peeling and slicing the potatoes into thin rounds.
Set aside.
3Season the pork chops with salt, black pepper, and paprika on both sides.
4In a large oven-safe skillet, heat 1 tbsp of butter over medium-high heat.
5Once hot, add the pork chops and cook until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side.
6Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside.
7In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tbsp of butter.
8Add the sliced onions and minced garlic, cooking until softened and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
9Stir in the flour to create a roux, cooking for 1-2 minutes.
10Gradually pour in the milk and chicken broth, stirring continuously until the mixture thickens.
11Add the sliced potatoes to the skillet, stirring to coat them in the sauce.
12Return the pork chops to the skillet, nestling them among the potatoes.
13Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.
14Cover the skillet with a lid or aluminum foil and transfer it to the preheated oven.
15Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
16Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
17This allows the sauce to thicken slightly and makes it easier to portion.
18Serve hot and enjoy.
