Fried Pork Chops With Rice And Gravy Recipes

FALL APART TENDER PORK CHOPS & GRAVY OVER RICE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300ºF.
• Season chops on both sides with seasoning salt, garlic powder and pepper to taste.
• In cast iron skillet (that has a tight-fitting lid), melt 3 Tbl. butter until hot and almost smoking over medium heat. Brown chops on each side, turning every 2 minutes so that they don't curl. When nicely browned on each side, about 6 - 8 minutes total, remove to a small plate.
• Add 3 more Tbl. butter to pan, melt, and add mushrooms and thyme. Sauté until golden, pile onto each chop.
• Turn off heat and move pan to a cool spot.
• Add onions to the bottom of the pan separating into rings, tossing in the butter. Carefully place chops with mushrooms on top of onions.
• In small bowl, whisk together rest of ingredients. Pour slowly and evenly over chops.
• Cover with lid, and pop into 300ºF oven and bake for 2 1/2 hours. (*3 hours if super thick-cut.) Do not lift lid during baking.
• Make rice during last 30 minutes of baking time.
• To serve, place chops onto servings of rice, whisk leftover gravy sauce in pan until creamy, cooled down a little and thickened a bit (this will take a few minutes), and ladle (lots!) of gravy over chops and rice. (*For a richer sauce, whisk in 1 Tbl. sour cream.) Garnish with finely chopped fresh parsley if desired.

FRIED PORK CHOPS WITH HOMEMADE TABLE GRAVY

Steps:

• For the pork chops: Pour the buttermilk into a shallow baking dish and set aside. In another shallow baking dish, stir together the flour and 1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons of the House Seasoning and set aside.
• Stir together the hot sauce, mustard and the remaining teaspoon of the House Seasoning in a small bowl. Rub the seasoning onto both sides of the pork chops. Place the pork chops in the buttermilk and turn to coat completely.
• Pour enough oil into a large cast-iron skillet to come 1 inch up the sides. Heat over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer reaches 350 degrees F.
• Working with one piece at a time, remove the pork chops from the buttermilk, letting any excess drip off. Coat in the flour mixture and carefully add to the hot oil. Fry, turning once, until the chops are browned and reach an internal temperature of 150 degrees F, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a clean wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet to drain.
• For the table gravy: Meanwhile, drain the oil from the skillet. Melt the butter over medium-high heat, then whisk in the flour and cook for a minute, whisking constantly. Whisk in the half-and-half, a little at a time. Bring the gravy to a simmer and simmer until thickened, whisking occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the House Seasoning and season with salt and pepper.
• Stir together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl.

SOUTHERN SMOTHERED PORK CHOPS IN BROWN GRAVY

Steps:

• Melt butter in a 3-quart saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook onion and garlic in the butter, stirring occasionally, until is browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove onion and garlic and set aside.
• Stir flour slowly into butter. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until flour is deep brown, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Gradually stir in broth. Add onion, garlic, mushrooms, and parsley. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
• Coat a large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Season pork chops with salt and pepper and brown in the hot pan, 5 to 7 minutes per side. Add gravy mixture from the saucepan. Cover and cook over low heat until tender and no longer pink in the centers, 30 to 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

SOUTHERN FRIED PORK CHOPS WITH CREAMY PAN GRAVY

Steps:

• Reserve 2 tablespoons flour and set aside, place the remaining flour in a shallow dish.
• To the bowl mix together the Cajun seasoning, garlic powder and black pepper.
• Rub the pork chops all over with the seasoning.
• Place the buttermilk in a shallow bowl.
• Dip the chops in buttermilk, then dredge in flour.
• Heat oil and butter in a skillet, then brown the chops over medium high heat for about 5 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through; remove to a plate, cover loosley with foil to keep warm(do not drain the fat in the pan).
• Add in chopped onion and saute until soft (about 3-4 minutes, you might need to add in more butter if needed to the pan).
• Add in the reserved 2 tablespoon flour to the skillet, then stir/whisk in the milk and seasoned salt; whisk or stir constantly until thickened and bubbly.
• Season with lots black pepper.
• Serve the gravy with the pork chops.

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).
