Pork Chops with Mushroom Cream Sauce Skillet Meal
Pork chops mushroom cream sauce cooks in under 30 minutes! Â This meal is made with caramelized onions, baby bella mushrooms and finished with a dash of heavy cream. Â Serve with Mock Mashed Potatoes and you have one tasty low carb dish!
Don’t you love a tasty hearty meal that looks like you were in the kitchen for hours, but actually the dish comes together in under 30 minutes? Â Lately that has been my cooking criteria, food that is scrumptious, filling, and simple to make!
As the summer ends and schedules change, I bet that’s what you’ll be gravitating towards too!
This Skillet Chicken Enchiladas recipe has been a family favorite dish for years. Â I like it because it’s filling and tasty as well as versatile! Â I like to change the green sauce to red and swap the chicken for beef for a completely different tasting meal.
Which is probably why I like this Pork Chops Mushroom Cream Sauce recipe so much too! Â I’ve made this dish three times in the past month, except each time I use a different cut of meat; chicken, beef, and now pork!
Chicken is usually what I use most often. Â It cooks quick and it’s super lean and filling, but guess what? Â “The other white meat” is just as good!
Looking for a vegetable to serve with this meal? Â How about trying these Parmesan Roasted Green Beans?!

YUM! You had me at mushroom cream sauce! This would definitely be delicious over pork chops, but I love the versatility to use different meats.
The sauce is great over chicken!
That mushroom cream sauce looks divine! I’d dine on that with the mashed potatoes alone! Yum! My family will love these pork chops too!
For leftovers I had cauliflower mashed potatoes with the mushroom sauce. It was just as delicious without meat!
