"My own concoction. I prefer to use self rising flour because it gives a lighter coating, but feel free to use plain/all purpose flour."

directions

  • Heat olive oil in large fry pan.
  • Add onion and cook 5 minutes then add mushrooms and cook 2-3 minutes.
  • Add garlic and cook 1 minute.
  • In the meantime, mix the self rising flour with salt and pepper to taste in a shallow dish and dredge the chops. Save 1 tablespoon of the flour for later.
  • With a slotted spoon, remove the veggies from the pan and set aside.
  • Brown the chops about 2-3 minutes each side and remove from the pan.
  • Return the veggies to the pan, add the chicken stock and place the chops on top, moving them around so they become immersed in the liquid.
  • Bring to a boil then lower the heat. Cover and simmer 10-15 minutes until pork is tender.
  • Remove pork to a plate and keep warm.
  • Mix the leftover tablespoon of dredging flour with the cold water and stir into the pan until thickened.
  • Spoon gravy over chops to serve.

  1. I never cook pork chops so was a little timid about trying this recipe...but it turned out GREAT! It was really yummy tasting and pretty easy to make! I made it with yellow onion as I didn't have red, but I think red would taste better. Next time I made add other veggies too (like zucchini). Our guests were impressed with the meal too! Thanks!
     
  2. The only thing I added were a couple of shallots I had to use. These were delicious! The red onion & shallots gave a wonderful flavor, the gravy was phenomenal over mashed potatoes! I never know what to do with those big Costco pork loin chops, glad I happened onto this recipe ~ this is a keeper!
     
  3. Im not sure why people give 4-5 stars on a recipe when they add their own ingredients or change measurements. The chops were pretty good but nothing special.
     
  4. I used a pork loin and cut into thick 1 1/2" slices just cuz I had it on hand. It lacked seasoning to me, but I love seasoning. I added some fresh thyme springs and rosemary which I thought really helped, salt and pepper for sure and did season the pork with a little all purpose seasoning (not seasoning salt, just all purpose herbs) on the pork to give it extra flavor. I did use stock for the chicken broth/stock, and used 1 1/2 cups cremeni mushrooms as they add more depth of flavor and white vs red that is what I had. I served mine over a brown rice that I doctored up with scallions, shallots and red peppers which seem to go well. I just wanted more flavors for me and I think the seasoning did it.
     
  5. I thought these were great. I always make adjustments for myself and I never measure, so I can't say exactly how much of what I used. I did use half of a white onion, mushrooms, a lot of garlic (maybe 5-6 cloves), and I also added frozen french style green beans and a few pieces of frozen sliced squash (wasn't sure how that would go so just a sample this time). I followed steps 1-3. I used thin pork loin chops and cut off the excess fat. I then seasoned the chops with fresh cracked pepper and salt. Then, I sprinked and spread regular flour over them all. I also added more seasoning from Mr. Dash (garlic & herbs plus onion & herbs) over the chops once they were in the pan. I added the frozen veggies (after rinsing for quicker thawing) in at step 7. I did put garlic powder and garlic salt over the thawed out veggies. You do also want to make sure that the chops are not boiling in the chicken stock, but just sitting above the liquid touching it. It will cook differently if you boil them (I ALMOST made that mistake of cooking the chops under the veggies in step 7 instead of on top of veggies). I did use corn starch to thicken my sauce and let me tell you... this dish was wonderful. I served it over rice and with toasted buttered french bread. What a great recipe. Thanks.

  1. This was very nice. I made it as directed except used a white onion instead of red and all-purpose flour. It was easy to prepare and the gravy was quite tasty. Thanks CQ. Made for Photo Tag.

I'm formally from East Norriton, PA, a suburb of Philadelphia. After 21 years of marriage, got divorced and met a Brit living in the U.S. He decided to come back to his homeland and I came over here about a year later. We were married in October 2005. Here I am down at Viking Bay which is only two miles from our house. My hubby grew up down here and I love living near the seaside. <img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/rosebud.gif> <img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/love_123.gif> We adopted two rescue cats in May 2007 and now I have some company during the day!

I have a husband who can cook! I cook during the week and Peter cooks on the weekends. I have included some of his concoctions in my list of recipes. <img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/condimen.gif> Me at the Scotland border, August 2005 <img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/Places%20we%20have%20been/19Scotland.jpg> I'm still unemployed which gives me plenty of time to experiment in the kitchen. I love to cook and try different things and 'Zaar has really helped in that aspect. I'd love to start my own business someday selling some of my homemade creations. <img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/i_want_it_all.gif> <img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/give_me_chocolate_or.gif> <img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/zaargroupie.gif> I'm a Betty Boop freak and have loads of stuff that I've collected over the years including a porcelain doll of her in a wedding dress and I even have her tattooed on my ankle. <img src=http://www.gifszone.com/"><img border="0" src="http://www.gifszone.com/content/icon/cartoon/cartoon_10.gif"> ~~~~~~~<img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/bettyboop36.gif> I enjoy doing cross stitch, cooking, baking and entertaining and hubby and I love our wines! Some of my pet peeves are bad hygiene, rudeness, bad manners, laziness and people who litter. My favorite cookbook is my Betty Crocker Cookybook. I've had a copy since I was about 12 and it was falling apart. My brother got me a new copy a couple of years ago from ebay and it was a FIRST EDITION and was in excellent condition. Now that I'm here in England, I find myself collecting more cookbooks. I'm going to need another room just for them if I don't cut down a bit! <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/untitled.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/200_artistrichardneuman-art-prints_.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"><img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/samethingsticker.jpg> <img src="http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/1535/CLC1.gif"><img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/RegSwap1-1.jpg> <img src="http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e347/Saturn6666/KiwiDutch/3chefstag1.jpg"><img src="http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f249/Dreamgoddess555/Narrow1-1.jpg"><img src="http://www.pickle.com/plink/ph/795B07337A4704307B51032E7D5E0237795A1C512307476E143E5A652E076C34725B06357F500533140741682C4659712C.jpg" border="0" alt="adoptatagparticipant" title="Photo and Video Sharing"/> <img src=http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/cookbookswap.jpg> <img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Drink-Challenge.jpg"> <img src=http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p241/CulinaryQueen/DrinkChallenge.jpg> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"><img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/smPACp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"> <img src="http://www.tinycounter.com" target="_blank" title="web site hit counter"><img border="0" alt="web site hit counter" src="http://mycounter.tinycounter.com/index.php?user=CulinaryQueen"></a>
