Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds bone-in pork chops
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 medium potatoes peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 medium onion sliced
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup frozen peas optional
  • Fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)

Method
 

  1. Season the pork chops with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika on both sides.
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned. Remove from heat.
  3. In the bottom of the crock pot, layer the cubed potatoes and sliced onions.
  4. Place the seared pork chops on top of the potatoes and onions.
  5. In a bowl, mix the chicken broth and heavy cream together, then pour it over the pork chops and vegetables.
  6. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the pork is tender and the potatoes are cooked through.
  7. If using, add the frozen peas during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
  8. Once done, garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
