A perfect comfort meal combining juicy pork chops with rich, cheesy scalloped potatoes.


Ingredients:

  • For the Pork Chops:
    • 4 pork chops (bone-in or boneless)
    • 4 cloves garlic, minced
    • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
    • 2 tbsp olive oil
    • 1 tsp dried thyme
    • Salt & pepper to taste
  • For the Scalloped Potatoes:
    • 4 cups thinly sliced potatoes
    • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
    • 1 cup heavy cream
    • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish for the potatoes.
  2. Season the Pork Chops:
    Rub both sides of the pork chops with minced garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, thyme, salt, and pepper.
  3. Sear the Pork Chops:
    Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops for about 4 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  4. Prepare the Scalloped Potatoes:
    Arrange the thinly sliced potatoes in an even layer in the prepared baking dish. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Make the Cheese Sauce:
    In a bowl, mix 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese with 1 cup of heavy cream. Pour the cheese sauce evenly over the potatoes.
  6. Combine and Bake:
    Place the browned pork chops on top of the cheesy potatoes. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 50 minutes or until the potatoes are tender and the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
  7. Serve:
    Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve the pork chops with cheesy scalloped potatoes on the side for a hearty, flavorful meal.
