Pork Chops With Sour Cream Sauce

Alan Leonetti's Note:

This recipe is actually from my partner, Dean Ramsey. This is a DELICIOUS way of serving pork chops, and the sauce should act as a gravy over white rice, wide egg noodles or mashed potatoes. If you have any questions, you can e-mail me: [e-mail]

• Prep Time: 5 mins
• Cook Time: 40 mins

Ingredients:

Sauce was excellent, I only used one onion, instead of two. Very good flavor. One point - watch the thickness of your chops and the temp, mine were a little thicker and I guess my stove doesn't simmer slowly, my chops were done at 12 minutes. Doesn't affect my rating though, it's a very tasty recipe. Thanks Alan.

I'm never really sure what to do with pork chops, but I'm glad I used this recipe. I made a few slight changes: I did not have sage so I used oregano and added garlic and red pepper flakes. I only had two chops but kept the sauce ingredients the same and I'm glad I did, everything was deliciously saucy. I served this over egg noodles and next time will probably add mushrooms, they seem like a natural addition (and there will be a next time!). This is great comfort-type food and easy to make. Thanks!

This was very tasty and the chops turned out tender. It needed a little something I couldn't put my finger on so I added more sage and that helped. It was great with rice pilaf served with the sauce. I also added a jar of mushrooms near the end since I didnt have fresh for more texture.
