Pat pork chops dry and season both sides with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear pork chops 3–4 minutes per side until golden. Remove and set aside.
Reduce heat to medium. Add butter and garlic cloves, cooking until lightly golden and fragrant (about 2 minutes).
Pour in chicken broth and scrape up any browned bits from the skillet.
Stir in heavy cream and bring sauce to a gentle simmer.
Return pork chops to the pan. Simmer 6–8 minutes, spooning sauce over the top until cooked through (145°F internal temp).
Garnish with parsley and serve warm with mashed potatoes, rice, or vegetables.
Notes
Use bone-in pork chops if preferred; just increase cooking time slightly.For extra flavor, add ¼ cup grated Parmesan to the sauce.Don’t overcook pork; a meat thermometer ensures tenderness.
