Smothered Pork Chops

This is one of our favorite comfort recipes, and on a night like tonight when it's freezing and there is snow outside, it's just perfect!

Ingredients:

Pork chops (6-8 thin cut)

1/2 c buttermilk (or see my substitution below)

1 1/4 c beef broth

1 c flour

1.5 T onion powder

1.5 T garlic powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 teaspoon black pepper

Oil

Mix:

1 c flour

1.5 T onion powder

1.5 T garlic powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 teaspoon black pepper

Dredge pork chops in the mixture (we use thin cut):
Fry them in a pan that has a coating of vegetable oil.
Remove the pork chops from the pan. Add a few tablespoons of the flour mixture to what is left of the oil, and whisk together. Then add 1 1/4 cup of beef broth. Whisk together and then turn your pan down and let it simmer and thicken, about 3-5 min's.
Add half a cup of buttermilk, or if you don't have buttermilk 1/2 cup of milk mixed with 1/2T of vinegar or lemon juice.

Put the pork chops back in the pan and let them simmer for 3-5 min's.
Eat up!
