  • For the Cheesy Potatoes:
  • 4 cups thinly sliced potatoes

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2: Season the Pork Chops

Season the pork chops with minced garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper to taste.

Step 3: Brown the Pork Chops

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and brown them for about 4 minutes on each side until they develop a golden crust.

Step 4: Prepare the Potatoes

Take 4 cups of thinly sliced potatoes and arrange them evenly in a baking dish.

Step 5: Mix the Cheese and Cream

In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of heavy cream with 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese. Stir well to ensure a smooth mixture.

Step 6: Combine Pork and Potatoes

Pour the cheese and cream mixture over the arranged potatoes in the baking dish. Then, place the browned pork chops on top of the potato mixture.

Step 7: Bake the Dish

Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

Serve the Parmesan pork chops alongside a fresh salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
