Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups chicken stock
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 2 cups baby carrots
- 1.5 cups green beans, trimmed
- 3 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Season the pork chops on both sides with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
Dredge the pork chops lightly in 2 tablespoons of flour, shaking off any excess.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Sear the pork chops for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove the chops from the skillet and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium and melt 2 tablespoons of butter in the same skillet. Add the chopped yellow onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of flour into the skillet and stir continuously for 1 minute to form a paste.
Gradually whisk in 2 cups of chicken stock to deglaze the skillet, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom. Continue whisking until the mixture thickens, about 3 minutes.
Stir in 1/2 cup of heavy cream and 1/2 teaspoon of salt, adjusting seasoning to taste. Return the pork chops to the skillet, spooning some of the gravy over them. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the chops are cooked through.
Meanwhile, in a separate saucepan, add the cubed potatoes and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium and simmer for 10-12 minutes or until tender. Drain and set aside.
In another pot, blanch the baby carrots and green beans in boiling water for 3-4 minutes until crisp-tender. Drain and set aside.
Arrange the cooked pork chops, gravy, and vegetables on a serving platter. Sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves and chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy your Pork Chops with Creamy Gravy and Vegetables!
