Prep Time10 minutes
Cook Time15 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 3 to 4 Boneless pork chops
  • ½ Cup of finely diced shallots
  • 8 oz. of Mushrooms thinly sliced
  • 3 Cloves of garlic minced
  • ¼ Cup of dry white wine you can also use dry red wine
  • ½ Cup of chicken stock
  • 4 Tablespoons of butter
  • ¼ Cup of olive oil
  • 1 Teaspoon of thyme dried
  • ½ Cup of mozzarella cheese shredded
  • ¼ Cup of parmesan cheese shredded
  • ½ Cup of all-purpose flour for dredging
  • Salt & pepper

Garnish:

  • Fresh basil

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Optional: pound the pork chops thin: This step is completely optional, however, it will allow the pork chops to cook quicker. To do this simply place one pork chop in either a plastic bag or between a sheet of plastic wrap. Then pound the chop with a meat mallet until it is roughly a quarter of an inch thick. Repeat these steps with the remaining pork chops.
  • Salt & pepper all of the pork chops on both sides, then lightly dredge them in the flour.
  • Cook the pork chops: Get out a large oven-safe pan, pour the ¼ cup of olive oil in it, and place it over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot place the pork chops in and let them fry for 2 to 3 minutes, or until they have become nicely browned. Then flip them over and fry for an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Once all pork chops are cooked, take them out of the pan and set them aside.
  • Cook the mushrooms & shallots: Add the minced garlic to the same pan and sautee them for a minute. Then toss in the shallots and sautee them for an additional 2 minutes. Finally, toss in the mushrooms along with the thyme and sautee them with everything for roughly 5 minutes.
  • Make the sauce: Add the wine and let it reduce for a minute. Then pour in the chicken stock and toss in the butter. Let this all cook and reduce for another 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Finish the dish in the oven: Take the pan off the heat and add the pork chops back in. Pour some of the sauce & mushrooms over them. Cover each pork chop with both kinds of cheese and place the pan in your oven. Let this bake until the cheese has melted to your liking.
  • Serve the pork lombardy along with the sauce and mushrooms, garnish with fresh basil and enjoy!
