Instructions

For the chops

Step 1
SEASON In a shallow dish, mix together flour with garlic powder and chili powder. Coat pork chops in flour, shaking off excess flour. Keep about 1-2 tablespoons of the flour to use later in the gravy.

Step 2
FRY chops in oil and butter to get the best, golden brown coating and flavours. If they don’t all fit in your skillet to cook them in a single layer, you will need to cook them in batches.

Step 3
REMOVE chops from the pan and tent with foil to keep warm so you can make your oven gravy!

For the gravy

Step 4
SAUTÉ onion slices until soft and caramelized. This takes about 10 minutes. If the pan becomes too dry, add in about 1 tablespoon of chicken broth.

Step 5
ADD garlic, thyme AND 1 tablespoon of the remaining flour to the pan. Cook the flour in the pan to toast it and dissolve it, which ensures your gravy doesn’t have a floury aftertaste.

Step 7
WHISK in the buttermilk or heavy (thickened) cream. If you don’t have buttermilk, mix 3/4 cup milk with 3 teaspoons white vinegar and let it sour for 5 minutes so it looks a bit curdled.
