How to Make Skillet Pork Chops with Mushrooms and Green Beans

Step #1.Rinse the green beans. Place them in a sauce pot and cover with water. Bring them to a boil, then continue cooking over medium-high heat.

Step #3.Heat another skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil then place the pork chops in the skillet, cooking about 2 1/2 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F. Let them rest for 1-2 minutes before serving.

Step #2.While the beans are cooking, add the mushrooms to a large skillet. Cook over medium to medium-high heat until all the moisture they release has been cooked off, about 8-10 minutes. Add butter to the pan and continue cooking over medium, stirring occasionally.

Step #4.Check the green beans after 20 minutes of cooking to make sure they are crisp tender. They may need a few more minutes. Once done, drain them well and add them to the skillet with the mushrooms. Season them very well with salt and pepper. Serve the pork chops with a side of green beans and mushrooms.

Recipe FAQs

How do you cook pork chops so they don’t dry out?

The key to moist pork is to not over cook it! I highly recommend using a thermometer to check the internal temperature of your pork chops so that you can remove them from the heat once they have reached 145 degrees internally.

What vegetable goes with pork chops?

I think green beans and mushrooms go great with pork and that’s why I added them to this recipe. A baked sweet potato or some potatoes au gratin would be amazing with this meal too.

How long do pork chops take to cook?

I love AdapTable Meals pork chops because they are a nice thin but even size and they take 4-5 minutes per side to quick! They are so quick to make and always tender and packed with flavor.
