Smothered Pork Chops

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons onion powder
  • 2 tablespoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 pork chops ¾-inch thick, bone-in
  • Vegetable Oil
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • ½ cup heavy whipping cream
  • Chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley for garnish, optional

Instructions

  • Put the flour in a pie plate and add the onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne, salt, and pepper; mix with a fork .
  • Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels to remove any moisture and then dredge them in the seasoned flour; shaking off the excess.
  • Heat a large saute 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 on each side until golden brown and cooked thoroughly.
  • Remove the pork chops from the pan and add a little sprinkle of seasoned flour to the pan drippings.
  • Mix the flour into the fat to dissolve and then while whisking, slowly pour in the chicken broth.
  • Stir in the heavy whipping to make a creamy gravy.
  • Place the pork chops on a platter and pour the gravy over the top.
  • Garnish with parsley, if you wish.
