Ingredients
  

Pork Chops
  • 4 pieces boneless pork chops about 1 inch thick
Seasonings
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Sauce Ingredients
  • 1 packet ranch seasoning mix (1 oz)
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened and cut into small cubes
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried dill
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Season the pork chops with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Cooking
  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the pork chops for about 3-4 minutes per side until browned. Transfer to a plate.
  2. In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add butter. Pour in chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits.
  3. Stir in ranch seasoning, heavy cream, parsley, and dill. Add softened cream cheese and Parmesan, stirring until smooth.
  4. Return pork chops to the skillet, spoon sauce over them, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 8-12 minutes until pork reaches 145°F (63°C).
  5. Let pork chops rest for 5 minutes before serving, spooning sauce over each chop.

Notes

For extra flavor, let the pork chops marinate in the seasoning for 30 minutes before cooking. Make sure the cream cheese is softened to avoid lumps in the sauce. Adjust the thickness of the sauce by adding more chicken broth if desired.
