Pork Chops with Blue Cheese Gravy

...Back to blogging meals after a "time out" with my injury... 


Pork Chops with Blue Cheese Gravy

Sounds strange? I thought so too, but man is it good!

It's easy :)

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons butter
4 thick pork chops
Pepper and Garlic Powder to taste
1 cup whipping cream
2 ounces blue cheese, crumbled

Step One: Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step Two: Season the pork chops with garlic powder and pepper.

Step Three: Fry the pork chops on 10 minutes on either side until its no longer pink

Step Four: Take off the heat and keep warm

Step Five: Using the same pan pour in whipping cream and blue cheese
 for about 5 minutes (until it thickens). Its important to use the same pan...why? The bits remaining add extra flavor AND less dishes when dinner is done! Win, win.

Step Six: Add the gravy and enjoy!
For a side we added Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes (feel free to add whatever your in the mood for)

My boyfriend enjoyed the pork chops so much he had a third helping. This might just be added to the favorites list :)!





 Side Note: Get creative, add additional seasonings, or even a different sauce! Adding things to a recipe makes the recipe your own and makes cooking fun. I usually find my recipes on Pinterest and write out a list of ingredients I'll need to make them. When I  write things down ahead of time it makes grocery shopping (especially while hungry, that much easier). I look for anything that looks fairly simple to make since working takes up most of my day. I also note the reviews on each recipe to see if people enjoyed it!
