Smothered Pork Chops (G.F.)

The other day I went into the freezer and pulled out some boneless pork chops to make for dinner that night. I went online in search of a tasty recipe for them and stumbled across this one! Again, another food network steal, this one by Tyler Florence. This recipe took my idea of pork chops to a whole new level. Definitely worth the time to make them! Serve them up with some mashed potatoes and you have a real 'comfort food' type meal. Here's the recipe:

Take your pork chops (bone in or boneless are fine!) and dry them off with a few paper towels. In a small mixing bowl, blend together 1 cup of flour (I used King Arthur Gluten Free All-purpose Flour!), 2 tbsp of onion powder, 2 tbsp of garlic powder, 1/4 tsp of cayenne pepper, 1 tsp of kosher salt, and 1/2 tsp of fresh cracked pepper. Once the dry ingredients are all mixed together, dredge the pork chops in the mixture, covering all sides of each. Next, heat a skillet with about 1/4 cup of e.v.o.o to medium heat. When the skillet is nice and hot, place each of the pork chops into the pan. Cook for approximately 4-5 minutes per side or until both sides are golden brown. Remove the pork chops from the pan. Add a few tsp of the left over dry mixture to the drippings left over in the skillet. Stir until the mixture becomes thick, then add 1 cup of chicken broth. Let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes so as to let it reduce down. Add 1/2 cup of milk (I actually used soy and even Ryan couldn't tell the difference!) to the pan and stir together well.Once the gravy has thickened, place the pork chops back into the pan with the gravy. Allow to simmer for another 5 minutes or until the pork chops are cooked through. Serve and ENJOY!
