A creamy delicious pork platter with a creamy gravy. Dress it up with crackled red skin potatoes. Best of all I made this for under $5.00. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil |
4 boneless pork chops (1.5 lbs.) |
coarse salt |
fresh ground pepper |
2 cups milk |
5 sprigs thyme, plus |
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leave |
1 tablespoon cornstarch |
1 tablespoon water |
Directions:
1. Begin by heating the oil over medium heat.
2. Season the pork chops and then cook for three minutes on each side or until the meat is browned.
3. Remove from skillet and put on a baking sheet.
4. Drain fat from skillet and return to low heat.
5. Place pork back in the skillet and then add the milk and thyme sprigs.
6. Bring this to a boil over high heat, cover and reduce the heat to low.
7. Simmer for 22 minutes, then turn pork and simmer for 22 more minutes.
8. Remember the heat should be on low.
9. Remove pork to a serving platter and cover to keep warm.
10. Return skillet to medium heat and bring juices to a boil.
11. Pour whisked combination of water and cornstarch into the skillet and bring together to a boil for just 1 minute.
12. You can use a food processor to puree the gravy or if you don't mind it lumpy just serve it as is poured over the meat.
