Categories     dinner, main course

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 lean, fat-free center-cut pork chops 1 inch thick, bones trimmed French style (see note), about 1 1/2 pounds
2 tablespoons flour
Salt to taste if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste
3 tablespoons oil (corn, peanut or vegetable)
1/3 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 cup dry white wine
3/4 cup fresh or canned chicken broth
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh tarragon leaves
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Put the chops on a flat surface and pound them lightly with a flat mallet.
  • Blend the flour, salt and pepper, and coat the chops on both sides with the seasoned flour, patting to help it adhere. Shake off excess.
  • Heat the oil in a large, heavy skillet. When it is quite hot add the chops and cook until nicely browned on one side, about 5 minutes. Turn the chops and cook until browned on the second side, about 5 minutes. Cook, turning occasionally, about 5 minutes longer. Transfer the chops to a warm platter.
  • Pour off the fat from the skillet and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until wilted.
  • Add the wine and cook, stirring, about 1 minute. Add the broth and tomato paste and cook, stirring, about 5 minutes. There should be about 3/4 cup of sauce. Add the tarragon and swirl in the butter. Put the chops in the sauce and stir them around until coated on all sides with the sauce. Serve.
