Helpful Kitchen Utensils to Use

steps to prepare this dish
First keep in mind this recipe does move along fairly quickly. We like to have all of our ingredients next to the stovetop and ready to go.
Heat a large saucepan with oil on medium heat. After seasoning both sides of the pork chops, add them to the saucepan.
Then heat the pork chops on both sides to the desired temperature. While the pork chops heat, slice the mushrooms. We prefer our mushrooms are cut into medium-sized slices-- nothing too small or they will fall apart during the simmering process.
Once the pork chops have heated through, remove with tongs to a plate, top with aluminum foil to keep them warm, and set aside.
Without washing the saucepan, add the butter and turn to low heat. Melt the butter and add the sliced mushrooms to the saucepan. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring often.
Next add in the gluten free flour and whisk to combine. Now add in the remaining ingredients: chicken broth and Worcestershire sauce.
Allow the gravy to simmer on low as it thickens. Then return the pork chops to the gravy mixture and garnish with freshy chopped parsley.
Serve immediately over mashed potatoes or another dreamy side dish.

There are so many mouthwatering options to pair with these gluten free and dairy free pork chops, such as our creamy mashed potatoes, baked potatoes will all the fixings, veggie pasta salad, or butternut squash soup. Also consider roasted carrots, steamed green beans, cauliflower rice, or a nice crunchy side salad.
And don't forget the dinner rolls. We highly recommend the My Bread Bakery dinner rolls. BTW-- these are a must for Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Can bone-in pork chops be used?
Yes, bone-in or boneless can be used in this recipe. Either way we suggest using a meat thermometer to enjoy this recipe safely. Pork cooking temperatures are medium-well (155-160 degrees Fahrenheit) and well-done (160 degrees).
Can this recipe be prepared ahead of time?
No. While our website is loaded with wonderful make-ahead recipes, this skillet Pork Chops with Mushroom Gravy is best fresh.
Do I have to use mushrooms?
No problem if you don't want to use them. Our kids are not fans of mushrooms either, but they love the mushroom gravy taste of this recipe. So you can easily leave mushrooms off the plates of those who aren't fans.
