Ingredients
Scale
4 boneless pork chops (about 1 inch thick)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
Pat the pork chops dry and season with salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side until browned.
Place the sliced onion in the bottom of your crock pot.
Add the seared pork chops on top of the onions.
In a small bowl, whisk together chicken broth, heavy cream, Worcestershire sauce, and thyme. Pour this mixture over the pork chops.
Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours, or on high for 2-3 hours, until the pork chops are tender.
Remove pork chops from the crock pot. If desired, thicken the sauce by whisking in a cornstarch slurry (1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons cold water) and cooking on high for 15-20 minutes until thickened.
Serve the pork chops with the creamy sauce.
Notes
Serve with mashed potatoes or rice to soak up the delicious sauce.
For a gluten-free option, ensure your chicken broth and Worcestershire sauce are gluten-free.
