Ingredients

  1. 4 boneless pork chops
  2. Austin’s Seasoning
  3. 1 cup of flour
  4. 2 tablespoons of butter
  5. 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  6. 2 tablespoons of minced garlic
  7. 2 tablespoons of flour
  8. 1/2 cup of chicken broth
  9. 1 cup of heavy whipping cream
  10. 1 teaspoon of chicken bouillon
  11. Additional salt to taste
  12. 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper
  13. 1 teaspoon each of paprika and onion powder

Directions

  1. Season both sides of the pork chops with Austin’s Seasoning.
  2. In a container, combine 1 cup of flour with Austin’s Seasoning.
  3. Dredge the pork chops in the flour mixture, ensuring they are well coated on both sides.
  4. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the butter and olive oil, allowing them to melt together.
  5. Place the pork chops in the skillet and fry for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and reach an internal temperature of at least 145°F.
  6. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set them aside.
  7. Lower the heat and add the minced garlic to the skillet, stirring to avoid burning.
  8. Add 2 tablespoons of flour to the skillet and stir to form a roux.
  9. Gradually add the chicken broth, heavy cream, chicken bouillon, and additional salt to taste, stirring continuously until the sauce thickens.
  10. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper, and 1 teaspoon each of paprika and onion powder.
  11. Once the sauce is smooth and creamy, pour it over the pork chops and serve.

Tips

  1. Ensure the pork chops are cooked to an internal temperature of at least 145°F for safety.
