Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Season pork chops

In a small bowl, mix together 1 teaspoon of salt, paprika, garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. Rub the seasoning mixture evenly on both sides of the pork chops.

2
Peel and cut potatoes

Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1-inch cubes.

3
Boil potatoes

Place the potato cubes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water. Bring the potatoes to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and let them simmer for 15-20 minutes or until tender when pierced with a fork.

4
Heat oil

While the potatoes are boiling, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

5
Cook pork chops

Add the seasoned pork chops to the hot skillet and cook for 6-8 minutes per side or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C). Remove the pork chops from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes.

6
Drain potatoes

Once the potatoes are tender, drain them in a colander and return them to the pot.

7
Mash potatoes

Add the butter, milk, and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper to the potatoes. Mash the potatoes with a potato masher or hand mixer until smooth and creamy.

8
Serve

Divide the creamy mashed potatoes among 4 plates and top each serving with a pan-seared pork chop.
