Smothered Pork Chops with Rice & Gravy

Ingredients:

For the Pork Chops:

• 3lbs bone in thin pork chops.

• 2-4 tbsp all purpose flour.

• Cajun Seasoning, to taste.

• 2-3 tbsp olive oil.

• 8 oz Cajun trinity (dice onion, celery, & bell pepper).

• 2 cups low sodium chicken broth

• 1 can mushroom steak sauce, optional but I highly recommend.

For the Rice:

• 1 cup 4 Sisters Rice Long Grain Organic White Rice.

• 2 cups water.

• 1 tsp olive oil.

• 1 tbsp butter.

• 2 large pinches of kosher salt.

Directions:

For the Pork Chops:

1. Lightly flour & season your pork chops on both sides.

2. Heat oil in a Magnolite or Dutch Oven, add in your pork chops, and brown on each side. Approx 3 minutes per side. Working in batches if needed. Remove once both sides are browned.

3. Add in your Cajun Trinity and sauté for about 3-5 minutes. Add more Cajun seasoning if desired.

4. Once trinity is softened, add in chicken broth & mushroom steak sauce. Stir until combined.

5. Add your pork chops back in and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover and lower heat. Simmer & cook your rice.

For the rice:

1. Heat olive oil in a sauce pan.

2. Add in 1 cup of 4 Sisters Long Grain Organic White Rice and “toast” it for 1-2 minutes.

3. Add in 2 cups water, salt, & butter. Bring to a boil.

4. Once boiling, add lid and turn heat to simmer. Set a 20 minute timer.

5. After 20 minutes, fluff with a fork, & enjoy with grave and pork chops.

6. *** you can also follow the instructions on the bag. I have done this too and it comes out perfect!

As always, let me know if you make this delicious meal! It is the perfect easy weeknight cajun recipe!
