Cooking Recipe Pork Chops With Crust Of Onions
Recipe Ingredients
Directions
* You can use 1 teaspoon of dried tarragon instead of 2 teaspoons of
fresh tarragon. The pork chops should have the bone in and weigh
about 10 oz each. ** Your doctor will have a sh*t-fit if he/she knows
about the butter. Sprinkle chops with salt and pepper. Melt 2 1/2
tablespoons of butter in a large heavy frying pan over medium-high
heat and brown chops on both sides, turning frequently so they do not
stick. Remove from pan, sprinkle with tarragon, cover and keep warm.
Add another tablespoon of butter to the pan drippings and saute
onions for 3 minutes or until soft and golden. Spread 2/3 of the
onions in the bottom of a shallow casserole, arrange chops,
tarragon-side down on top. Sprinkle lightly with thyme and cover with
onions. Pour wine into pan, bring to a boil, add chicken stock,
return to the boil and cook until liquid is reduced to about 2/3 of a
cup. Pour mixture over chops. Combine bread crumbs and cheese, spread
over onions and chops. Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter and
drizzle it over the crumbs. Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes.
