Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 5 lean bone-in pork loin chops, about 1/2 inch thick (about 1 1/4 pounds)
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped (1/2 cup)
  • 1 tablespoon Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
  • 2 1/2 cups half-and-half
  • 1/4 cup bacon flavor bits or chips
Make With
Gold Medal Flour

Steps

  • 1
    In shallow dish, stir together 1/3 cup flour, the salt and pepper. Coat pork chops with flour mixture, shaking off excess.
  • 2
    In 12-inch skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook pork chops in oil about 10 minutes, turning once, until brown. Remove from skillet.
  • 3
    Stir onion into drippings in skillet. Cook about 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until softened. Stir in 1 tablespoon flour. Cook 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Stir in half-and-half and bacon bits.
  • 4
    Return pork chops to skillet. Cover and cook over medium-low heat about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pork is no longer pink in center.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    This stick-to-your-ribs meal makes plenty of flavorful gravy that is oh, so delicious served over mashed potatoes or rice. Add a side of steamed green beans for an easy weeknight meal.
  • tip 2
    Pork loin chops are one of the leanest cuts of pork. In fact, any pork item labeled "loin" is an excellent slimmed-down, lower-fat selection.
