Ingredients

  • 4 slices bacon cooked and crumbled
  • 10 1/2 inch thick boneless pork chops
  • 2 tsp garlic and herb Mrs. Dash divided
  • 1 tsp seasoned salt divided
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil additional as needed
  • 3 Tbsp butter or light butter
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 8 oz sliced portabella mushrooms
  • 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 clove garlic minced
  • 3 cup milk
  • 1 Tbsp fresh thyme leaves divided

Instructions

  • In a large skillet cook the bacon, then set aside on paper towels. Reserve 2 Tbsp of pan drippings, discard or freeze the remainder.
  • In a small bowl mix together 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 tsp garlic and herb Mrs Dash, 1/2 tsp seasoned salt and black pepper. Dust chops on all sides with the seasoned flour.
  • In the same large skillet, heat 1 Tbsp olive oil with bacon drippings over medium-high heat. Brown the pork chops over medium-high heat for 1-2 minutes on each side. Add additional oil as needed while cooking. Cook in batches, then remove from the pan cover and keep warm.
  • To the pan add the butter, onion, mushrooms, Worcestershire sauce and 1/2 of the fresh thyme to the pan. Scrape any brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
  • Add the remaining 1 tsp Mrs. Dash, 1/2 tsp seasoned salt, and black pepper to your taste. Cook for 10 minutes then add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute longer.
  • Sprinkle the cooked mushrooms and onions with 1/4 cup all-purpose flour. Mix the flour into the mushrooms and onions, cooking over medium-low heat just until dissolved.
  • Gradually add the milk. Cook stirring constantly over medium-high heat until it's beginning to thicken. Mix in the remaining thyme.
  • Add the pork chops back to the pan, and simmer until cooked through and fork tender about 8-10 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with crumbled bacon just before serving.
