SMOTHERED PORK CHOPS RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to bubble, being careful not to burn. Stir in minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add pork chops and cook until browned, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer chops to a large baking dish, leaving pan drippings in the skillet.
• Bake chops in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add sour cream to the skillet and whisk together with the pan drippings until smooth. Add canned soup and whisk until incorporated.
• Remove chops from the oven and pour sour cream-soup mixture over top. Return to the oven and bake until chops are no longer pink in the center, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
• Remove from the oven and let sit for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Whisk together the flour, seasoned salt, lemon pepper, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper in a pie plate. Dredge the pork chops in the flour mixture.Heat the olive oil and 4 tablespoons of the butter in a heavy skillet over medium heat. Fry the pork chops in batches until well browned, 2 to minutes per side. Remove the chops from the skillet and keep warm. Add the onions and peppers to the same skillet and cook them, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Remove them to a plate and set them aside. To the same skillet, add the remaining 3 tablespoons butter and 3 tablespoons flour. Whisk it into a paste. Stir and cook until the roux turns dark golden about 2 minutes. Whisk in the stock a bit at a time, working out all the lumps, then add the cream. Add more stock if the gravy is too thick. Taste and add more salt and pepper as needed. Add the onions and peppers, coating them in the sauce. Serve pork chops on a plate with the gravy spooned over the top and chow down!
