Pork Chops with Mushroom Gravy

Darlene
This dish is so comforting, it reminds me of my mom (Bethany’s Grandmother) and when she would make it for our family. It fills you up with goodness and makes life just a little bit better.

Ingredients for Pork Chops

  • 2 4 oz. Pork loin chops, trimmed of fat (See Notes)
  • 1 tsp Neutral oil
  • 1/2 tsp Granulated garlic
  • 1/2 tsp Granulated onion
  • 1/4 tsp Paprika
  • 1/8 tsp Black pepper
  • 1/8 tsp Salt

Ingredients for Mushroom Gravy

  • 1/4 Cup Mushrooms, chopped (See Notes)
  • 1/4 Cup + 2 Tbsp Fairlife 2% milk (See Notes)
  • 2 Tbsp All-purpose flour
  • 2 Tbsp Butter
  • 7 Tbsp Chicken broth (See Notes)
  • 1/8 tsp Granulated onion
  • 1/16 tsp Granulated garlic
  • 1/16 tsp Black pepper
  • 1/16 tsp Salt

Instructions
 

  • Mix the garlic, onion, paprika, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl. Pat each pork chop with a paper towel until dry. Rub each chop with the spice rub on both sides.
  • Heat a small frying pan on medium-high heat. Add 1 tsp of oil and spread it in the pan. Add the chops and sear for 2 minutes on each side. They should be browned, but not done.
  • Turn the heat to medium, cover, and cook for 5 more minutes. Remove from heat and set aside on a plate.
  • Add your chopped mushrooms and butter to the same pan on medium heat. Stir for 30 seconds. Add the chicken broth, onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, and salt.
  • Continue to stir for 30 more seconds. Sprinkle the flour into the pan and whisk for about a minute. This will cook the flour so it doesn’t taste raw.
  • Add the milk and whisk. Stir the mixture until it thickens, 3-4 minutes. (See Notes)
  • Place the pork chop juices back into the pan and stir. Add the pork chops back to the pan. Cover and cook until the chops are done. There shouldn’t be any pink showing on the side of the pork chops. This will take 3-5 minutes. Stir once during this time.

Notes

You can use bone-in pork chops, they're hard to find in an appropriate size.
We use Cremini or Baby Bellas but any mushroom you prefer will work here.
We recommend Fairlife 2% milk because unlike other brands it has double the protein and half the sugar of regular milk.
Freeze leftover chicken broth into a regular-sized ice cube tray. When frozen, remove to a resealable plastic bag. One cube equals one Tbsp.
The gravy will thicken even more as it cools off but everyone has a preference for the thickness of their gravy. Use additional milk to thin or flour to thicken if needed.
We like to serve this along with mashed potatoes and Green Beans with Bacon.
