How to Make Creamy Bacon Pork Chops

Making this dish is easier than you might think. First, the pork chops are seasoned and pan-seared until golden brown. Then, bacon is cooked until crispy, releasing its smoky goodness into the pan. The creamy sauce is made by deglazing the pan with chicken broth, adding heavy cream, and stirring in Parmesan cheese. The pork chops are then returned to the skillet, soaking up all the delicious flavors. Within minutes, your creamy bacon pork chops are ready to be served!

Serving Suggestions & Side Dishes

These creamy bacon pork chops pair beautifully with a variety of sides. For a classic pairing, serve them with buttery mashed potatoes or roasted garlic green beans. If you’re looking for something lighter, a fresh green salad or steamed vegetables will complement the richness of the dish. No matter how you serve them, these pork chops are guaranteed to impress.

Storage & Reheating Tips

If you have leftovers, don’t worry! Store your creamy bacon pork chops in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. To reheat, simply warm them in a skillet over medium heat, adding a splash of chicken broth or cream to keep the sauce smooth and creamy. Avoid microwaving for too long, as it can dry out the pork.
