Braised Pork Chops With Cream Gravy Recipes

HERB BRAISED PORK CHOPS WITH CREAMY ONION GRAVY

Steps:

• If using half-and-half or light cream, you may need to thicken.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Brown pork chops well on all sides--you may have to do this in shifts depending on how large your chops are
• Remove browned pork chops from pan and set aside.
• Add onion to the same pan and saute over medium-low heat until onions are translucent.
• Add the stock, thyme (or herb of choice) and the au jus mix; stir to blend.
• Add pork chops back to the pan and bring to a boil.
• Reduce the heat to low, cover and cook for 20 minutes.
• The au jus gravy mix added enough salt for my taste, but taste the liquid at this point to see if you need to add any to your own taste.
• TO MAKE GRAVY
• Remove pork chops to a plate and keep warm (I usually put them on an oven-proof plate and pop them in a 200F oven).
• Turn heat to medium-high, add the cream, stirring to blend it well, and allow the liquid to reduce by about one third. This should take about 8-10 minutes.
• Thicken if you want thicker gravy.
• SLOW COOKER DIRECTIONS
• Brown chops as in original recipe. Set aside.
• Deglaze browning skillet with stock.
• Add stock, chopped onions, au jus mix and herb(s) to crock pot; stir.
• Lay chops on top of liquid.
• Cover and cook on low 6-8 hours (4-6 on high)**
• Remove chops and stir in cream.
• Turn cooker to high and thicken with either flour or cornstarch (see ingredient list for suggested thickening), if desired (but you'll probably have to).
• Cook on high about 10 minutes.
• **slow cooker times are approximate. Always check at MINIMUM time

PORK CHOPS WITH MUSHROOM GRAVY

Steps:

• Season the pork chops with salt and pepper; sprinkle all over with 1 1/2 tablespoons flour. Heat 1/2 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Working in 2 batches, add the chops and cook until golden and just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side, adding 1/2 tablespoon olive oil to the skillet between batches. Transfer the chops to a plate and keep warm.
• Heat the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil in the same skillet; add the mushrooms, garlic, scallion whites and a pinch of salt and cook, without stirring, until the mushrooms begin to brown, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle in the remaining 1/2 tablespoon flour and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are soft, about 3 more minutes. Stir in the chicken broth and sour cream, bring to a simmer and cook until the gravy thickens, about 1 more minute.
• Divide the pork chops among plates. Drizzle any juices from the pork into the gravy; stir in the scallion greens and parsley. Season with salt and pepper; spoon over the pork. Serve with cornbread.

PORK CHOPS SMOTHERED IN ONION GRAVY

Steps:

• Mix seasoned salt, garlic powder, black pepper, and paprika together in a bowl; rub about 3/4 teaspoon spice mixture onto each pork chop. Thoroughly coat each pork chop with flour, saving remaining seasoning and flour for the gravy.
• Heat vegetable oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat; cook pork chops in the hot oil until browned, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer pork chops to a plate, retaining drippings in the pan. Cover pork chops with paper towels.
• Cook and stir onion in the drippings in the heavy skillet over medium heat until browned, 5 to 10 minutes. Add mushrooms, remaining flour, remaining spice mixture, and about 1 teaspoon water if needed to moisten; cook and stir until onion is golden brown, about 5 minutes.
• Stir 2 cups water into onion-mushroom mixture until gravy is smooth; bring to a boil. Place pork chops in the gravy, reduce heat, cover skillet, and simmer until pork chops are tender, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
