Keto Pork Chops With Mushrooms
"Juicy skillet pork chops topped with flavorful mushrooms – a perfect weeknight feast to go with some cauliflower rice on the side (if you like). Seasoned with lemon and garlic, these pork chops are sure to impress every palate. Perfectly seared pork chops are caramelized and golden on the outside and slightly pink in the center. To achieve this, it’s best to sear the chops on high heat for 2-5 minutes on each side. However, knowing when the pork chop is medium done rather than rare is a bit tricky. Try pressing the chop and if it feels slightly “springy,” it’s done."
