PORK CHOPS SMOTHERED IN ONION GRAVY
This recipe calls for 4 pork chops because that's about what you can fit into a standard frying pan, though I've squeezed 6 smaller chops in before. I recommend you double the recipe because my husband eats them two at a time. Serve the smothered pork chops over cooked rice with your favorite vegetable side dish and cornbread.

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).

Steps:
- Put your cup of flour in a shallow pan and whisk in black pepper, salt and garlic powder. Dredge the pork chops in the flour until fully covered on both sides. Heat oil in a large skillet. Brown chops on both sides, turn down heat, cover your skillet and let cook for about 15 minutes until chops are thoroughly cooked. Remove chops from pan, place on plate and cover to keep warm.
- Make sure you have at least 1/4 cup of drippings in the pan (can add more oil, if needed) Add enough flour to make a roux or paste (I use any leftover flour from dredging plus more if needed). Cook and stir until flour is browned. Add water and milk. Bring to boil and cook to desired thickness for gravy. Makes about 2 1/2 cups gravy. Serve over chops, potatoes, rice, etc.
CRISPY FRIED PORK CHOPS W/BACON ONION GRAVY
We love crispy fried pork over most cuts of meat. The gravy put this dish over the top! And the Panko bread crumbs put the crisp in the chops that I love so much. Comfort food at best! Other cuts of meat would be wonderful with the bacon onion gravy. Bacon is good with just about everything...right?? Excellent served over...

Steps:
- 1. I had thick pork loin chops for this recipe, however, I didn't want them thick, so the 1st thing I did was I pounded them out to about 1/4 inch thickness. NOTE: these pounded out pretty big, feel free to split the chops before battering and frying.
- 2. Set up 3 bowls for battering: 1st bowl combine flour and seasonings to taste (with seasoning listed). 2nd bowl beat eggs with 2 tablespoons milk. 3rd bowl Panko bread crumbs with a sprinkle of salt if desired.
- 3. In a large skillet heat about 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter over a med/high heat, closer to a med heat than a high heat. Add more as needed.
- 4. Rinse pork and pat dry. Dredge in flour mixture 1st, then dip in egg mixture and last dredge in Panko bread crumbs.
- 5. Fry until a nice golden brown on both sides. Add add'l olive oil and butter as needed. NOTE: You are not deep frying, just keep the pan nicely coated. Remove chops from skillet once done and keep warm in a 170-degree oven. Reserve drippings for gravy.
- 6. Add onions and bacon pieces to the drippings and saute until bacon is crisp and onions are tender. Stir in 2 to 3 tablespoons of the flour reserved from battering the chops. NOTE: you can add more seasoning if desired. Continue cooking until bubbly and then add chicken broth and heavy cream. Stir until thickened.
- 7. I cooked the egg noodles about 10 minutes before serving time. I did add a little butter to the noodles and I sprinkled a little salt and pepper on them once cooked and drained. You could use rice, mashed potatoes, or your choice of pasta.
- 8. Serve chops over noodles (or mashed potatoes or rice) and spoon gravy over chops. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Put the flour in a shallow dish. Break the eggs into another shallow bowl and whisk with 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Mix the breadcrumbs with the oregano and thyme in a third shallow bowl.
- Dredge a pork chop in the flour, shaking off the excess, dip it into the eggs and then coat evenly with the breadcrumbs. Set aside on a piece of wax paper or baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining pork chops.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat with enough oil to come halfway up the sides of the chops (about 1/4 cup). When the oil shimmers, add the chops and fry until golden brown and crispy, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels briefly. Serve hot with cooked spinach and lemon wedges.
Tips:
- To ensure the pork chops are crispy, make sure to pat them dry before frying. This will help the skin crisp up and prevent the meat from steaming.
- Use a heavy-bottomed skillet for frying the pork chops. This will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the chops from sticking.
- Don't overcrowd the skillet when frying the pork chops. This will cause the chops to steam instead of fry, resulting in a less crispy texture.
- Cook the pork chops over medium heat. This will help to ensure that the chops are cooked through without burning.
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the pork chops. The chops are done when they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- While the pork chops are frying, make the bacon-onion gravy. This will help to add flavor and moisture to the chops.
- Serve the pork chops with the bacon-onion gravy immediately. This will ensure that the chops are hot and crispy.
Conclusion:
Crispy fried pork chops with bacon-onion gravy is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The pork chops are crispy and flavorful, while the gravy is rich and creamy. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
