    🌟 Why this recipe works

    As far as dinner recipes go, this one-pan dish is easy, delicious, and ultra-creamy. For families of 4 or 5, this is an affordable family dinner thanks to the low cost of pork compared to similar beef cuts.

    Pork can be tricky! Unlike beef, which is often cooked to medium or medium-rare and super tender, pork should be fully cooked. With pork, you have to get it just right to ensure the cuts are juicy and tender.

    The easiest way to make no-fail pork chops is with a cream sauce. Not only does the creamy ranch sauce taste amazing and pair perfectly with pork, but it also helps the pork stay moist, juicy, and tender all at the same time.

    Ultimately this creamy ranch pork chop recipe is popular thanks to its pleasant savory taste, meaty flavor, and creamy texture. And the fact it is a super easy, one-pan dish, and affordable factors into it.

    OH, and in case you're wondering, you can turn this into a creamy slow cooker pork chop recipe!

    🍽 Key Ingredients

    Meat: six 1" thick-cut boneless pork chops.The best pork cuts include boneless pork chops, loin chops, and center-cut pork chops.

    Seasoning: flavor is key to make this pork chops recipe so, I use my homemade ranch seasoning. It is very similar to the store-bought hidden valley ranch seasoning but tastes better in every way.

    Substitutions

    Seasoning
    If you're short on time, a ranch dressing mix or store-bought ranch packet works fine.

    Cream Cheese
    Not a fan of cream cheese? Try using sour cream or mushroom soup same ratio instead.

    🔪 How to make Creamy Ranch Pork Chops

    Thanks to my step-by-step instructions and cooking tips this recipe is easy to make. You'll have the fantastic recipe prepped, cooked, and on the table in 30 minutes.

    Preparation

    Step 1

    Start by patting your chops dry! Dry meat is essential; it really helps brown the meat.

    Step 2

    Sprinkling them liberally with salt and pepper. Season liberally as both salt and pepper are absent from the sauce. (Note 2)

    Cooking Instructions

    Step 1

    Put your cast iron skillet on medium-high heat and melt 8 tablespoons of butter in it. You can also substitute this with olive oil if you prefer.

    Step 2

    Place the pork chops in the melted butter and sear them for about 4-5 minutes.

    Step 3

    When the pork chops reach around 135 degrees Fahrenheit or 57 degrees Celsius, they are done. Remove and let these golden pork chops rest while you continue. Reduce heat to medium.

    Step 4

    Next, pour in the chicken stock. You'll need this to deglaze the skillet. While this is still going on, use a spoon to scrape the skillet's sides to ensure that you get all the delicious brown bits. Continue until sufficiently deglazed. (Note 3)

    Step 5

    Add cream cheese and heavy cream. You'll need to stir the resulting mixture till it's homogenous and smooth.

    Step 6

    Then add in the homemade ranch seasoning and continue stirring until it also combines with the ingredients. This is the cream sauce.

    Step 7

    Finally, lower the heat another notch and reintroduce the pork chops into the cream sauce in the cast iron skillet.

    Cover it, leave for about 5-10 minutes, and check to see if everything is satisfactorily done. You're aiming for a final internal temperature of 145°F or 63 °C. (Note 4)

    💭 Cooking Tips

    Drying
    When you sear meat, including pork chops, pat dry with a paper towel to absorb surface moisture. If meat is not dry, it will not sear properly and turn grey rather than golden brown.

    Searing
    When searing pork in your cast iron skillet, leave at least 1 inch between each pork chop. And do not move the pork chops around during the searing process. This will disrupt the sear!

    Sauce Thickness
    You'll need your sauce thick to complement the meat properly, so if it hasn't reached that point when the pork chops are done, leave the heat on and take the pork chops out.

    Continue until you get the thickness you need. This is common practice for any sauce. Simmering reduces moisture, which in turn thickens the sauce.

    📖 Recipe Variations

    Chicken - If you're not a pork fan (or follow a kosher diet), you can easily swap the pork chops for boneless chicken. I suggest breasts. They'll taste just as good as pork chops. Call it by the eye on this one, though.

    Seasoning and vegetables - adding onion powder to this recipe will help to give your pork more flavor. Also, adding pre-cooked green beans to the sauce can do wonders for variety.

    🙋 Frequently Asked Questions

    How do you cook pork so it doesn't dry out?

    The easiest way to avoid dry pork, cook it in a cream sauce. A cream sauce made with cream cheese, sour cream, or heavy cream is perfect for keeping pork moist, juicy, and enhancing the flavor.

    Can pork chops be a little pink in the middle?

    Yes, a pork chop with a hint of pink in the middle is safe to consume. The USDA finally updated its official recommendation for pork. Previously they advised pork to be cooked to 165 degrees Fahrenheit while professional chefs aim for 145 degrees Fahrenheit.

    Can I use a Slow Cooker?

    Yes, you can! Even though this is cooked in a pan, it can still be made in an instant pot, crock pot, or slow cooker. The outcome does vary, but overall these ranch pork chops come out great regardless of the method.
    Follow the instructions outlined in this recipe but sear the pork chops on high heat before adding them to the slow cooker.

    💨 Easy Meal Prep

    If you are doing meal prep, make sure your pork chops have cooled off appropriately before storing. Once cool, store in an airtight container like the Snapware 6 cup container, airtight, leak-proof, freezer safe, dishwasher safe, and microwave safe.

    Place the pork chops on the bottom and smother them with sauce. Store in the fridge for 4-5 days (reheat in microwave) or freeze for up to 3 months (unthaw in the refrigerator for 24 hours, reheat in microwave).

    Meal prep storage is easy! One pork chop per serving, planning out amounts is easy. However, I'll admit I've eaten more than my share on several occasions. Another option for meal prep is my easy pulled pork recipe. My kids love it in their 15 minute pulled pork tacos!

    🥗 Side Dishes for Creamy Pork Chops

    I often stick to classic side dishes like green beans or green vegetable mix with a recipe like a ranch pork chops. However, I've also made these side dish recipes on several occasions and find they work well with this creamy ranch pork recipe's flavor profile.

    Steamed Vegetables

    There has never been a better culinary match than the combination of meat and vegetables. And hearing your pork chops with this steamed vegetable recipe will remind you why this is the case!

    Complete with the mellow taste of garlic powder spice (I prefer this to cloves garlic) and an oil sauce that brings it together. This green recipe is a great way to get your carnivore husband or child to broaden their horizons a bit.

    Air Fryer Whole Roasted Cauliflower

    Cauliflower is a versatile ingredient that pairs perfectly with our creamy ranch pork chops. Plus, air frying is an extremely easy, no-fuss way to prepare a side dish.

    Cilantro Lime Cauliflower Rice

    This Side will surprise you! Cauliflower rice with a hint of lime and cilantro pairs perfectly with my creamy ranch sauce. I love mixing the cauliflower rice with the sauce; it truly is a perfect match for this recipe.

    Mashed Potatoes

    I feel like this is obvious, but I'll say it anyway. You can't go wrong with whole mashed potatoes with cream cheese. Whenever you make a creamy gravy, mashed potatoes are perfect.

    Author: Kim Grabinski

    Ingredients
     

    • 6 thick cut boneless pork chops (Note 1)
    • 8 ounces full fat cream cheese - softened and cut into 8 pieces
    • 8 tablespoons salted butter
    • ½ cup heavy cream
    • ½ cup chicken broth
    • 3 tablespoons ranch seasoning
    • sea salt - apply liberally
    • ground black pepper - apply liberally

    Instructions

    • Start by patting your chops dry and sprinkling them very liberally with salt and pepper. Season liberally as both salt and pepper are absent from the sauce. (Note 1)
    • In a large skillet, heat 8 tablespoon of the butter over medium high heat until melted.
    • Sear each chop for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. When you've achieved a satisfactory golden brown crisping, turn the pork chops over and sear the other side as well. Note X
    • When the pork chops reach around 135°F or 57 °C degrees they are done. Remove and let these golden pork chops rest while you continue. Reduce heat to medium.
    • Pour in chicken broth to deglaze pan. Scrape the pan to get all of the yummy browned bits.
    • Add cream cheese, and heavy cream and stir continuously until smooth.
    • Add homemade ranch seasoning and stir until combined.
    • Reduce heat to low, add chops back into pan and cover. Simmer for 10 minutes or until chops reach an internal temp of at least 145 degrees F.

    Notes

    1. Best Cuts of Pork include boneless pork chops, loin chops, and center cut, bone-in chops.
    2. Dry the pork chops! When you sear meat, including pork chops, pat dry with a paper towel to absorb surface moisture. If meat is not dry, it will not sear properly and turn grey rather than golden brown.
    3. Deglaze the cast iron skillet. We want to capture all of the flavors from the searing process. This is pure gold; the flavor from deglazing a pan is unmatched.
    4. Timing is everything! This recipe is a guide. If your pork chops are 1", they will take far longer than pork chops that are ½" thick. As long as your mindful, this will turn out wonderful.

      Just cooking this now. Smells really good, not sure what’s going on with the sauce though. It has kind of separated with an oily layer and the sauce never really got “smooth”. I followed directions, but wonder if the cream cheese wasn’t soft enough? Anything like this happen when you’ve made it before? Thanks!

        Initially it will be separate because of the butter, but it should mostly combine. I just stirred it continuously until it was. I did notice some slight separation again after simmering but just a bit along the edge of the pan. I can never get the cream cheese to fully combine but I am impatient and don't let it soften enough. A microwave may help that, but I don't have one so I don't know for sure.

          Any time I am using cream cheese I will mix all of my wet ingredients in the bowl and pop it in the microwave to basically melt the cream cheese to a smooth consistancy. Also frozen vs refrigerated cream cheese has different textures.

      I normally don’t leave reviews on anything I try but this deserves a review! I started Keto 3 days ago and with recipes like this I am truly enjoying it! Even my fiancé (who isn’t following keto) LOVED it! He’s a firefighter and asking me for the recipe to cook for his guys on shift at work. Just wanted to let everyone know how great it was. Thank you!

      I’m new to the keto journey, and still searching & collecting recipies I can use as an anchor dish for the whole family. I made some pasta for the kids, and wilted some baby spinach in the microwave with a touch of the sauce & a bit of butter. These pork chops will definitely be in the permanent archive. Thanks for this Pin!

      I have been trying for months to get my husband to start a Keto diet with me and he kept saying no. I found this recipe and made it for dinner about a month ago along with mashed cauliflower. He absolutely loved the meal. I then told him it was all Keto friendly and he finally said he would try the diet because he had no idea the food would be so good. This recipe is amazing and he asks for it every week almost. Thank you so much for taking the time to post it. Only “ bad” thing about my husband starting this diet is he has lost way more weight than me already. He’s down 25 lbs. Thank you again.

        In theory you probably could, although I'm not sure how the cream and butter and cream cheese will fare. The fat may separate. I'm love to know how it turns out if you try it.

My family loved it so much that they requested it become a weekly meal before they were even done eating the first meal. lol. I also love the face that I can have this on my new Keto life style without the guilt! Yesterday I made the same thing but used chicken instead... and my family was excited to have the same great sauce! Thank you for posting this!

      Don't usually bother to leave reviews but this is an exception for an exceptionally good recipe. Everyone in our house loved it, even my picky daughter who doesn't like sauce on anything. We cooked it with the pork as suggested, topped our broccoli with it, and then used some of the leftover sauce with some leftover plain pulled chicken and that was equally delicious. I was waiting for my husband to come home with the ranch seasoning, and the sauce without the ranch was also good if you need a cheesy cream sauce. I will make this often.

      Absolutely delicious. Made it for my family last night. They usually eat pork chops with shake n bake on it but I wanted something different so I made this and it was delicious! Everyone loved it!! Definitely would eat again!

      I haven't got a chance to try them YET, cooking is still in progress... I'm towards the end and I cannot wait but I am a bit bummed and wondering what I did wrong.

      My sauce separated almosted as soon as I add the ranch powder and worse when I added the chops. I know it isn't the recipe, it has to be something I did wrong. All the butter is visible everywhere and everything else looks like lumps, it's not a saucey consistency at all, unless of course you're into scampy lol.

      Any suggestions for my next batch because I will be trying again and would like to execute it without having to forewarn my family that what they're eating looks a bit like a science project LMBO!

        Oh no! Was your cream cheese fully softened? I know that can cause issues. Some slight butter separation is normal during the simmer process (keep stirring), and it's a thin cream sauce but it also shouldn't be weirdly separated. How did it taste?

      I made this last evening and Hubby & I loved it!! We are new to Keto and glad to know we can eat this good while losing weight!! I did fully soften the cream cheese before adding it in. The only time a bit of butter separated was after the cooking process was complete & the pan was almost cool; I only noticed it as I was putting away leftovers. As I was cooking it, I thought I may add in some sliced mushrooms next time. Delicious!!

      I'll be trying this tonight. Could this be done in a crockpot? maybe just sear both sides of the pork chops then add sauce ingredients to the crockpot? Or will that not work because it's mostly dairy? thoughts appreciated.

        I would be concerned about the sauce separating because of the dairy if you made it in the crock pot.

      I'm making this tonight. I have found that with cream cheese it will blend more smoothly if it's fully softened. I found that out when I first got on the keto diet and was making cinnamon rolls in a mug. I popped it In the microwave for 30 seconds and viola! It came out smooth. Can't wait to try this tonight!!

      Made this tonight and eating it right now. Super rich, but SO delicious. I even followed your instructions to make the ranch seasoning and added that instead of the Hidden Valley pre-made packets I had bought. Hubby, who is very picky, agreed that it is delicious and loved the ranch flavor, but agreed it's super rich.

      Lastly, how do I get my sauce more creamy like your pictures? As much as I stirred and tried to smooth out the cream cheese, it came out kinda chunky.

Tonight, I am cooking this but using chicken instead for the first time. I think it will be even better since we like chicken over pork chops. Thanks for sharing! What a hit!

Once they are done, can I keep them in a warm oven for 30-45 minutes until I serve them? Or would that dry them out? Thanks!

          Hard to say, possibly a lack of moisture, or difference in heavy cream. A good deglaze with chicken brooth, use more if needed. Followed by adding soft cream cheese, butter and heavy cream. I really like to make sure it is fully combined, and smooth before adding the pork chops back to simmer.

      So I made this tonight for dinner and it was a massive success! It was a success even though I messed up one part of the instruction!!! I seasoned the chops with the ranch dressing before searing it! And yes, my fire alarm went off!!! Hahaha!!! My sauce ended up being a little darker than the one in the image, but everyone was raving about it!!! I served it with a side of cauliflower mash....delicious is only the beginning!

        For obvious reasons when cooking any meat, specifically 6 decent sized pork chops, it will be greasy.

        Option 1: Cook the pork and drain the grease
        Option 2: Trim the fat from the pork before cooking
        Option 3: Reduce the butter if you must

        There is really no magic trick to cooking meat without grease. You can reduce the amount by using the options above but you will reduce the overall flavor profile. Best to think of this like gravy and not grease.

        Also it is worth a mention. You CAN"T buy this kind of flavor!.

      We have made this many times and it is a family favorite - even for our picky ones! We added a can of rotel tomatoes to the sauce, along with garlic, black pepper, and a dash of cayenne. We usually double the sauce so we can eat it the next day with pork rinds. A great addition to our dinner rotation - making it right now!
