SOUTHERN SMOTHERED PORK CHOPS IN BROWN GRAVY

Steps:

• Melt butter in a 3-quart saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook onion and garlic in the butter, stirring occasionally, until is browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove onion and garlic and set aside.
• Stir flour slowly into butter. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until flour is deep brown, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Gradually stir in broth. Add onion, garlic, mushrooms, and parsley. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
• Coat a large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Season pork chops with salt and pepper and brown in the hot pan, 5 to 7 minutes per side. Add gravy mixture from the saucepan. Cover and cook over low heat until tender and no longer pink in the centers, 30 to 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

• Once the potatoes start to get nice and tender, add in the peppers and onions.
• Sprinkle in the salt, pepper, and garlic powders.
• Pour in the chicken broth, and fold the ingredients.
• Toss the smoked sausage back into the pan, and combine the ingredients.
• Cook until everything is nice and tender, and the broth is absorbed by the potatoes.
