Ingredients
  

  • 4 Pork Chops Bone-in or boneless - whichever you prefer

  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt & pepper
  • 1 1/2 - 2 cups mushrooms sliced
  • 1 tbsp roasted minced garlic
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth

  1. Pour olive oil in a cast iron skillet and heat over medium heat.
  2. In a small bowl mix together smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt & pepper.
  3. Make sure the pork chops are dry. Then coat both sides with spice mix.
