-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
-
Season both sides of pork chops with salt and pepper. Set aside for 20-30 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, prepare seasoning. In small bowl, stir together flour, garlic powder, chili powder and paprika.
-
After 20-30 minutes, pat each pork chop with a napkin or paper towel; rub both sides of each with seasoning.
-
Heat oil in large cast-iron (or other oven-safe pan) over medium-high heat. Once hot, add pork chops and cook about 2-5 minutes on each side, until the outsides are no longer pink.
-
Remove pork chops from skillet, cover loosely and let rest while you make the mushroom sauce.
-
Add mushrooms and broth to skillet and simmer about 8-10 minutes, until mushrooms soften and liquid is reduced by half. (Make sure to scrape the bottom of the pan while simmering to release more flavor.) Stir in heavy cream.
-
Place pork chops back into the skillet and evenly sprinkle each with shredded cheese, and place in the oven for 8-12 minutes, until cheese melts and pork chops reach a safe internal temperature of 145 degrees F.
