Seasoned Flour For Chicken Or Pork Chops Food

CHEF JOHN'S SMOTHERED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Sprinkle pork chops with poultry seasoning, salt, and black pepper on both sides. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; brown pork chops well on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
• Discard excess grease from pan and melt butter in the same skillet. Reduce heat to medium and stir onion in the hot skillet with a pinch of salt until onion is very browned and caramelized, about 15 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook for 1 minute; stir in flour and cook for 2 minutes.
• Pour chicken broth into skillet and stir, dissolving browned bits of food in the bottom of the skillet. Pour juices that have accumulated on plate containing pork chops into the sauce. Mix in buttermilk until smooth. Add water. Bring sauce to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and cook until onions begin to break down and sauce is thickened, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Place pork chops into sauce, spooning sauce over meat to coat. Turn heat to low and simmer until chops are tender and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Adjust levels of salt and pepper and serve chops with gravy on top.

SOUTHERN STYLE SMOTHERED PORK CHOPS WITH BUTTERMILK GRAVY- DEE DEE'S

Steps:

• 1. Put the flour in a shallow platter and add the onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne, salt, and pepper; mix with a fork to distribute evenly. Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels to remove any moisture and then dredge them in the seasoned flour; shaking off the excess. RESERVE THE LEFTOVER SEASONED FLOUR MIXTURE FOR THE GRAVY.
• 2. Heat a large sauté pan or cast iron skillet over medium heat and coat with the oil. I usee an iron skillet, it's heavy and you can count on an even heat. I'm pretty sure it's a southern thang as well.
• 3. When the oil is nice and hot, lay the pork chops in the pan in a single layer and fry for 3 to 4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
• 4. Remove the pork chops from the pan and add a little sprinkle of seasoned flour (about 2 spoonfulls) to the pan drippings. Mix the flour into the fat to dissolve and then pour in the chicken broth in. Let the liquid cook down for 5 minutes to reduce and thicken slightly. Stir in the buttermilk to make creamy gravy and return the pork chops to the pan, covering them with the sauce. Simmer for 5 minutes until the pork is cooked through. Season with salt and pepper; garnish with chopped parsley and/or chopped green onions before serving.
