# What You'll Need:

→ Pork Chops and Seasoning

01 - 4 bone-in pork chops, 1 inch thick
02 - 1 teaspoon salt
03 - 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
04 - 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
05 - 1 tablespoon olive oil

→ Roasted Radishes

06 - 1 pound radishes, trimmed and halved
07 - 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
08 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
09 - 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
10 - 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme

→ Creamy Mushroom Sauce

11 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
12 - 8 ounces cremini or white mushrooms, sliced
13 - 3 cloves garlic, minced
14 - 1/2 cup heavy cream
15 - 1/2 cup chicken broth
16 - 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
17 - 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
18 - 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
19 - Salt and pepper to taste

# How To Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Toss radishes with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and thyme. Spread in a single layer and roast for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and tender.
02 - Pat pork chops dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika.
03 - Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork chops and sear for 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove to a plate and cover loosely with foil.
04 - Reduce heat to medium in the same skillet. Add butter and mushrooms. Sauté for 5 to 6 minutes until mushrooms are browned and moisture evaporates.
05 - Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in heavy cream, chicken broth, Dijon mustard, and Parmesan cheese. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
06 - Return pork chops and any accumulated juices to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Simmer for 3 to 5 minutes until pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145°F.
07 - Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley. Serve pork chops with creamy mushroom sauce and roasted radishes on the side.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It tastes like you spent hours in the kitchen, but you're actually done in less than an hour.
  • The creamy sauce is naturally low-carb and packed with umami, so you won't miss anything.
  • Radishes roasted until golden are a revelation—they taste nothing like raw radishes and become your new favorite vegetable.
02 -
  • Don't skip drying the pork chops before seasoning—moisture is the enemy of a good sear, and a proper sear is what keeps the meat from drying out later in the sauce.
  • If your mushrooms release a lot of liquid, let it evaporate before adding the cream—watery sauce is fixable but requires extra simmering time.
03 -
  • Bone-in pork chops cook more evenly and stay juicier than boneless—they're worth the small extra cost.
  • If you accidentally overcook the pork, the creamy sauce will still keep it from tasting dry once it's nestled back into the pan.
