Marry Me Pork Chops
Ingredients
- Four 8-ounce boneless pork chops (can use bone-in, if you prefer)
- kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 cup diced onion
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 3 medium garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
- ⅔ cup dry white wine
- ⅔ cup heavy whipping cream
- ½ cup water
- ⅓ cup julienne-cut sun dried tomatoes packed in oil, drained
- 1 cup grated Parmesan
- 2 cups chopped spinach
- chopped fresh basil, for garnish
- serve with rice or orzo
Instructions
- Season the pork chops with salt and pepper on both sides. In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Brown the pork chops for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, just until golden. Transfer to a plate (they will be cooked more later).
- Reduce the heat to medium and don't wipe out the skillet. Add the onion and saute for a few minutes until the onion is softened. Add the butter and garlic, and then stir in the flour; cook and stir for 1 minute. Add the wine; simmer for a couple of minutes. Stir in the cream, water and sun dried tomatoes. Then add the Parmesan and stir until it melts into the sauce. Taste and season with salt and pepper, as needed. Stir in the spinach.
- Add the pork chops back to the pan, along with any pork chop juices. Simmer the pork chops in the sauce until they are cooked through.
- Serve the pork chops over rice or orzo with plenty of sauce on top. Sprinkle with fresh basil.
