Ingredients
Pork Chops:

• 4 boneless pork chops
• 2 tablespoons butter

Pork Chop Dredging Mixture:

• 1/4 cup all purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Creamy Herb and Wine Sauce:

• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 cloves garlic minced
• 1 tbsp flour (or use leftover flour from pork chops dredging)
• 1/2 cup dry white wine
• 1/4 lemon (juice of fresh lemon)
• 1/2 cup chicken stock
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 4 sprigs fresh thyme (leaves only)

Instructions
Pork Chop Dredging Mixture: 

• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning and season generously with salt and pepper.

Cooking Pork Chops:

• Dredge pork chops thoroughly in dry mixture, then heat 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Once hot, add pork chops and sear them by cooking for 3-4 minutes per side for a total of 6-8 minutes. First side is cooked on medium high, but when cooking on the second side, reduce the heat to medium. Remove pork from heat and transfer to a plate. Cover to keep warm.

Creamy Garlic & Herb Sauce:

• Return skillet to heat, add 2 tablespoons butter and minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes on medium heat. Add flour to the butter mixture and start pouring in wine while still on medium heat - about 1 minute. Next squeeze lemon into the pan, add chicken stock and heavy cream. Add fresh thyme and Italian seasoning, season with salt and pepper (to taste). Simmer for 2-3 minutes. Taste the sauce and add more seasoning, if necessary.

Final Assembly:

•  Reduce heat to low and return pork chops to pan. Depending on the thickness of your pork chops, you might just need to heat them up a bit to make sure they are done. Drizzle some of the sauce over pork chops and reheat on low for 2-3 minutes or until pork chops are done.
