Ingredients

Truffle Mashed Potatoes

  • 4 Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and quartered
  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese
  • ⅓ cup heavy cream 
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter 
  • 1 tablespoon truffle oil 
  • ¼ cup sour cream 

Mushrooms

    2

    • tablespoons olive oil
    • 3 cups cremini mushrooms, sliced 
    • 3 cups oyster mushrooms, sliced 
    • 1 tablespoon dry sherry 
    • 1 garlic clove, minced
    • 1 tablespoon fresh Italian parsley, chopped
    • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped

    Sauce

    • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
    • ⅓ cup minced shallots 
    • ½ tablespoon Italian parsley 
    • 2 tablespoons red wine 
    • 1 teaspoon lemon juice

    Herbed Butter 

    • 2½ tablespoons unsalted butter, softened 
    • 1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped
    • 1 tablespoon green onions, sliced
    • ½ tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
    • 4 tablespoons roasted garlic, mashed

    Pork Chops

    • 4 6-ounce bone-in pork chops
    • Salt and pepper to taste
    Directions
    1
    In a large pot, cover the potatoes with cold water and bring to a simmer. Simmer until soft but not mushy, about 16 to 20 minutes.
    2
    Drain the potatoes and return to the pot; heat over a medium-low heat for 1 to 2 minutes to dry out the moisture, then mash with a potato masher. Quickly fold in the cream cheese, heavy cream, butter, truffle oil and sour cream and season to taste. 
    3
    Meanwhile, heat the olive oil for the mushrooms in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the mushrooms, sherry, and garlic, and sauté until mushrooms are lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low, stir in the parsley and thyme, and simmer until mushrooms are tender, about 5 to 7 minutes.
    4
    Preheat the oven to 375°F and heat a large skillet or grill to medium-high. 
    5
    Lightly brush the pork chops with oil, season with salt and pepper and grill for 2 to 3 minutes per side to create grill marks or a sear. 
    6
    Transfer to a baking sheet and roast to desired doneness or 150°F internal temperature, about 10-12 minutes. Rest for 5 minutes before serving. 
    7
    To make the sauce, heat a tablespoon of butter in a skillet over a medium heat. Add the shallots and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until caramelized. Add the parsley and red wine and simmer for a few minutes until slightly reduced. Transfer to a blender and add the rest of the butter and the lemon juice; blend until smooth. Season to taste.
    8
    Combine all ingredients for the herbed butter in a small bowl.
    9
    Place a pork chop on each plate and top with herbed butter. Add mashed potatoes and mushrooms and serve with shallot sauce on the side.
