Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the pork chops in your favorite seasonings for a couple of hours before cooking. Use bone-in pork chops for more flavor and juiciness. If you like a bit of spice, add red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the gravy. To store leftovers, let the pork chops cool down, then place them in an airtight container. You can keep them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stove until warmed through.
