Garlic Butter Pork Chops with Creamy Potato Casserole

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Potato Casserole

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish with butter.
2. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine heavy cream, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and onion powder. Heat until warm but not boiling.
3. Layer half of the sliced potatoes in the baking dish and sprinkle with half of the cheddar and Parmesan cheese.
4. Pour half of the warm cream mixture over the potatoes. Repeat with another layer of potatoes, cheese, and the remaining cream.
5. Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove foil and bake for another 15 minutes until golden and bubbly.

Step 2: Cook the Garlic Butter Pork Chops

6. While the potatoes are baking, season the pork chops with salt, pepper, paprika, and thyme.
7. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear pork chops for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown.
8. Reduce heat to low, add butter and minced garlic, and baste the pork chops for 2 minutes until fully cooked.
9. Remove from heat and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
