How to Make It
- Season chops, sear 3 minutes per side, remove.
- Sauté onion and mushrooms 5 minutes; sprinkle flour over, cook 1 minute.
- Whisk in broth and milk, simmer until thickened.
- Return chops, cover, simmer 15 minutes until tender; serve over rice.
- Serve with coleslaw on the side.
No-Time-For-That Tip: Don't rush the gravy step — flour needs that minute in the fat or it tastes raw and pasty.
Swap It: Chicken thighs work with the exact same method if pork chops aren't on sale.
