Time 1h10m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tablespoons butter
1 onion, thinly sliced and quartered
4 cloves garlic, minced
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups beef broth
1 ½ cups sliced baby bella mushrooms, or more to taste
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
4 center-cut pork chops
½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper, or to taste
cooking spray

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).

CAJUN PORK

Tina Gantner of Matthews, Missouri writes, "It took me a few tries to perfect this recipe, but now it's a favorite in our household. More Cajun seasoning can be added, but it tends to make the dish too hot for children. Chicken breast can be substituted for the pork tenderloin and rice can be used instead of the noodles."
