Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

Dip pork chops in the beaten egg and then dredge in Italian-seasoned bread crumbs, ensuring an even coating. (5 minutes)

03

Step

In a large skillet, heat butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add pork chops and cook until golden brown on each side, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer the browned pork chops to an oven-safe baking dish, leaving the flavorful pan drippings in the skillet. (10 minutes)

04

Step

Add chopped fresh mushrooms, chopped onion, red wine, white wine, butter, Worcestershire sauce, balsamic vinegar, brandy, sugar, and minced garlic to the skillet with the pan drippings. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms have softened and the sauce has slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. (15 minutes)

05

Step

Pour the luscious mushroom sauce evenly over the pork chops in the baking dish. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil to retain moisture and flavor. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Cook in the preheated oven until the pork chops are no longer pink in the center and are cooked through, about 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a pork chop should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). (40 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, try using a mix of mushroom varieties such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
If you prefer a thicker sauce, you can whisk in a cornstarch slurry (1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons cold water) during the last few minutes of simmering.
Serve these braised pork chops with creamy mashed potatoes, polenta, or crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.
