Smothered Pork Chops
Recipe courtesy Tyler Florence

Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons onion powder
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon cayenne
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 pork chops, 3/4-inch thick, bone-in
1/4 cup olive oil
1 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup buttermilk
Chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, for garnish

Directions
Put the flour in a shallow platter and add the onion powder, garlic
powder, cayenne, salt, and pepper; mix with a fork to distribute evenly. Pat the pork chops dry with

paper towels to remove any moisture and then dredge them in the seasoned flour; shaking off the
excess.

Heat a large saute pan or cast iron skillet over medium heat and coat with the oil. When the oil is
nice and hot, lay the pork chops in the pan in a single layer and fry for 3 minutes on each side
until golden brown. Remove the pork chops from the pan and add a little sprinkle of seasoned flour
to the pan drippings. Mix the flour into the fat to dissolve and then pour in the chicken broth in.
Let the liquid cook down for 5 minutes to reduce and thicken slightly. Stir in the buttermilk to
make a creamy gravy and return the pork chops to the pan, covering them with the sauce. Simmer for 5
minutes until the pork is cooked through. Season with salt and pepper and garnish with chopped
parsley before serving.
