Creamy Pork Chops & Mushrooms Recipe
Welcome to Kenya’s Kitchen88 food blog. Today, I’ll be sharing how to cook my delicious pan seared pork chops with mushroom gravy recipe. This is a great pork chop recipe when you want something filling but tasty as well. Make sure to serve the mushroom gravy with fresh hot dinner rolls to soak up that delicious gravy. The mushroom gravy is the best part of the recipe, it’s creamy & filled with spices to give it that extra flavor. I hope you enjoy my recipe.
For this recipe, start out by pan searing the pork chops in some olive oil and butter. Once the pork chops are nicely browned, follow the steps to make the flavorful gravy. Adding a splash of half & half is important and it will give the gravy that creamy texture. Don’t forget to scrape up any pork drippings left over in the pan, all that good stuff will add savory taste to the gravy. This is a simple pork chops meal to make and doesn’t require a lot of effort. I hope you enjoy this recipe, feel free to check out other recipes listed on my food blog.
