My kids didn't like pork until they tried THIS recipe

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

pork chops

🥗Healthier: chicken breasts

💰Cheaper: pork loin

Chicken breasts are lower in fat and cost less than pork chops.

mushrooms

🥗Healthier: cauliflower

💰Cheaper: canned mushrooms

Canned mushrooms are more affordable and still provide flavor.

chicken broth

🥗Healthier: vegetable broth

💰Cheaper: water + bouillon

Water with bouillon is a cost-effective broth substitute.

Season pork chops with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Add pork chops and cook for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.

Remove pork chops from the skillet and set aside on a plate.

In the same skillet, add chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Add minced garlic and sliced mushrooms, cooking until mushrooms are browned, about 5 minutes.

Sprinkle flour over the mushroom mixture and stir to combine, cooking for 1-2 minutes.

Gradually whisk in chicken broth and bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits.

Stir in heavy cream, mustard, thyme, and lemon juice; simmer until thickened, about 3-5 minutes.

Return pork chops to the skillet, spooning sauce over them to coat.

Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.

Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
