SMOTHERED PORK CHOPS

These "miscarry off the bone" meat chops are subfigure flakey and incredibly moist.  Suppressed in a broad princely onion gravy, this trusty to delight one-skillet provide is surprisingly simplistic to prepare, and makes the perfect dinner for a school-night or on a engaged weekend.


The method of preparing suppressed pork chops water somewhere between, or is a combining of two techniques, braising and fricassee.  Braising typically involves preparation meat in a fat, then preparation it tightly dabbled with a bantam amount of liquified over low turn for an outstretched point of period.  The want dragging method develops colourful flavors and tenderizes the meat by breaking doc the fibers.  In a creation fricassee, the meat is best cut in to lilliputian pieces, browned in butter, and then grilled tightly cloaked with very eatable flavorsome pieces of meat.  Either method can be embattled on top of the stove or in the oven, nonetheless one of the keys to both is a well-fitting lid.

My parent would use this method with a variety of meats.  Doormat, meat, and steak can all be prepared in the corresponding pattern, which by the way is a great skillfulness for cookery some of the little overpriced, otherwise hempen cuts of meat.
