The first step is: Peel and chop the pork.
Rub pork chops with seasoning:
Turn the oven on high heat (375°F, 190°C).
Add the salt, pepper, paprika, and dried thyme to a small bowl and stir to combine.
Make sure the pork chops are covered evenly by rubbing the spice mixture all over them.
Prepare the Pork Chops for Searing:
A big skillet over medium-high heat should be heated with 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
To get a golden brown crust, sear the pork chops for two to three minutes each side. This not only gives a tasty crust but also helps to seal in the fluids.
Next, get the potatoes ready.
Potatoes with onions layered:
Thinly slice the potatoes and onions and spread them out evenly in a big baking dish.
After seasoning with salt and pepper, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Top with Cheese: After tossing the potatoes and onions, sprinkle half of the shredded cheese on top.
Third, Put Everything Together and Bake
Layer the Potatoes and Onions in the Baking Dish. Next, add the Seared Pork Chops.
Combine the garlic and cream:
Combine the minced garlic and heavy cream in a small bowl.
Toss the pork chops and potatoes with the cream mixture.
Add the Remaining Cheese on Top:
Once again, top with the remaining shredded cheese.
Put the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes, covered with aluminum foil.
Take the foil off and continue baking for another 10-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are soft and the cheese is bubbling and golden.
The fourth step is to garnish and serve.
Before you garnish, take the dish out of the oven and let it aside to cool for a few minutes.
Add some color and freshness with some chopped parsley as a garnish.
Hot out of the oven, plate the roasted pork chops with the mashed potatoes. With a side of your choice of salad or veggie, enjoy this filling and tasty dinner.
