How to Make Pork Chops Smothered With Fennel And Garlic

  1. Pat 4 boneless pork chops (about 1 inch thick) dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and pepper.
  2. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until browned.
  3. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside.
  4. Add 1 large fennel bulb ( thinly sliced), 4 cloves garlic (minced), and 1/2 cup dry white wine to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the fennel is softened.
  5. Stir in 1/4 cup chicken broth and 2 tablespoons of butter. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2 minutes, allowing the sauce to slightly thicken.
  6. Return the pork chops to the skillet. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the pork chops are cooked through.
  7. Garnish with fresh parsley (optional) and serve immediately.
