Creamy Herb and Mustard Pork Chops

Recipe 23 of 52 was Creamy Herb and Mustard Pork Chops.  I don't have a picture because we dug right in. It was absolutely delicious. I got this recipe from the book 30-Minute One-Pot Meals by Joanna Cismaru.


Creamy Herb And Mustard Pork Chops

1 tbsp olive oil
4 pork chops (about 1 inch thick), fat trimmed
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 tbsp unsalted butter
1 small onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp dried basil
1/2 tsp dried thyme
2 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 tsp grainy mustard
1/2 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup heavy cream
Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet.

While the oil heating, season the pork chops with salt and pepper. Add the pork chops to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes per side; they should be golden brown.

Remove the pork chops from the skillet and add the butter to the same skillet. When the butter has melted add the onion, garlic, basil and thyme and cook for 5 minutes, or until the onion is soft and translucent.

Whisk in the flour and mustard. Cook for 2 minutes, then stir in the chicken stock and heavy cream. Cook for a couple more minutes, making sure the flour is cooked, and season with salt and pepper as needed. 

Pour the sauce over the pork chops and garnish with parsley, if desired.

Blogmas 2014 - Day 8 What Is On Your Wish List This Year

Oh my goodness, I'm really pretty easy to buy for.  I have pretty much everything a girl could want.  I mean of course I have a few things but I'm not really counting on anything because I already got a huge gift of the new car. I really love scarves, especially infinity scarves right now.  I'm beyond obsessed.   Fun gadgets, appliances, etc for my kitchen are always a win for me as well as cookbooks and decorations.  I'm so into all of it, and it's the best go to gift idea for me. A nice pair of rain boots or wellies.  I just bought some for all of my kids for Christmas, and I've been dying for my own for years. Vera Bradley!  I'm so in love with Vera Bradley.  I'd like a bigger purse, as well as a library tote bag. And honestly I've not asked for any of even these things because what I want more than anything else in the world, is our own house.  I want to buy a house for my kids to grow up in an...

Blogmas 2014- Day 1 Favorite Christmas Tradition

This year, I'm participating in Sandra's, at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom, Blogmas 2014.  If you want to join in, you can go over to her post, by clicking here , and see what it's all about.   When I was a kid, growing up, we never had fake trees.  I loved everything about them. The smell, the way they looked, and even more so, the going out as a family in the cold.  It was always a hunt whether at a tree far or a parking lot full of precut trees.  When I was younger it was the parking lot.  There was a place about a mile from our house that we would drive to.  We'd walk through tons of trees leaning against walls and fences.  My dad would hold each one up, shaking them a little bit and asking what we thought.  We all got to be involved in finding the perfect tree.  As we got older, we started going to tree farms instead of the parking lot.  We'd get a sled and a saw and walk between aisles and aisles in fields, full of gorgeou...
