Ingredients

• 4 pieces Pork chops (bone-in or boneless)
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 medium Yellow onion (sliced thinly)
• 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 200 grams Cremini or button mushrooms (sliced)
• 1 cup Beef or chicken broth
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons Fresh dill (chopped)

Directions

Step 1

Season the pork chops on both sides with salt, black pepper, and paprika.

Step 2

Lightly dust the pork chops with all-purpose flour, shaking off any excess.

Step 3

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and sear them for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

Reduce the heat to medium and add the unsalted butter to the skillet. Once melted, add the sliced onions and sauté for about 5 minutes until softened.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are browned and tender.

Step 6

Pour the beef or chicken broth into the skillet, scraping the bottom to deglaze and release any browned bits. Bring the mixture to a simmer.

Step 7

Stir in sour cream and Dijon mustard until the sauce is smooth and creamy. Add the fresh dill and mix well.

Step 8

Return the seared pork chops to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Cover the skillet with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the pork chops are tender and cooked through.

Step 9

Serve the Russian pork chops hot, topped with the creamy dill sauce. They pair beautifully with mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.
