Smothered Pork Chops image

This is quite good, and one of my family's favorite dishes. (For a richer gravy, I sometimes use cream instead of the buttermilk.) I like to serve it with a side of cooked white rice or mashed potatoes to use up some of the delicious pan gravy.

Categories     Pork

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 c all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp onion powder
2 Tbsp garlic powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp black pepper
4 pork chops, each about 3/4 inches thick
1/4 c olive oil
1 1/2 c low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 c buttermilk
1/8 c chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • 1. Put the flour in a shallow platter and add the onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne, salt, and pepper; mix with a fork to distribute evenly. Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels to remove any moisture and then dredge them in the seasoned flour; shaking off the excess. (Reserve the seasoned flour for a later step.)
  • 2. Heat a large sauté pan or cast iron skillet over medium heat and coat with the oil. When the oil is nice and hot, lay the pork chops in the pan in a single layer and fry for about 6 to 8 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Transfer pork chops to a platter; keep warm.
  • 3. And add about 1/8 cup the seasoned flour to the pan drippings. Whisk the flour into the fat to dissolve, and then pour in the chicken broth. Let the liquid cook down for 5 minutes to reduce and thicken slightly. Stir in the buttermilk to make a creamy gravy and return the pork chops to the pan, covering them with the sauce. Simmer for 10 to 15 minutes until the pork chops are thoroughly cooked. (Cooking time can vary depending on thickness of the chops.)
  • 4. Season pork chops with salt and pepper, and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.

I've never made smothered pork chops before, but this recipe made it easy. The pork chops were juicy and flavorful, and the gravy was perfect.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover pork chops. I added some extra vegetables to the gravy, and it was a delicious and easy meal.

I'm not a fan of mushrooms, so I omitted them from the recipe. The pork chops were still delicious, and the gravy was nice and thick.

I followed the recipe exactly and the pork chops turned out tough and dry. I'm not sure what went wrong.

The pork chops were a bit dry, but the gravy was amazing. I'll definitely be making this again, but I'll cook the pork chops for a shorter amount of time.

These smothered pork chops were fall-off-the-bone tender and incredibly flavorful. The gravy was rich and delicious, and the onions and mushrooms added a perfect savory touch. I served this dish over mashed potatoes, and it was a hit with my family.
