Smothered Pork Chops

Smothered Pork Chops.  Nothing makes me happier than to hear Hubby say, after eating these pork chops, that he married the best cook in the world!  Isn’t he the greatest!  Thanks to Aaron McCargo Jr’s smothered pork chop recipe on the Food Network for being the inspiration for our meal.

These pork chops make a great Sunday supper for the family but are easy enough to make on a weeknight.

Since I like lots of flavor I make a seasoning blend of seasoned salt, cracked black pepper, smoked paprika, granulated garlic, onion powder, and a pinch of cayenne for a little heat.  I like to season both the pork chops and the flour.

I use grapeseed oil.  Typically in a Southern kitchen for this dish they will use butter. You can certainly choose to do that and it will taste wonderful.  I chose grapeseed oil because it is a healthier option that can withstand a higher heat than olive oil.  Most likely, the family will not even notice that you made the switch.

The recipe is simple.  Brown the floured and seasoned pork chops on both sides in the oil. Remove the chops and set aside.  Saute the onions and mushrooms until soft.  Add the pork chops back in and add chicken broth and a touch of worcestershire.  Cover and let simmer for about 20 minutes.   Easy!

These pork chops go great with about any side like mashed potatoes, green beans, or stuffing.  It is a great southern comfort food dish.  I hope your family likes it as much as mine.
