- 4 bone-in pork chops about 1-inch thick
- 3 tbs olive oil
- 1 small onion chopped
- 8 oz crimini mushrooms sliced
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1/2 cup brandy or whiskey
Sauce:
- 2/3 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbs flour
- 4 sprigs thyme or 1/2 tsp dried thyme
Mix all sauce ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside.
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
Heat 2 tbs of the olive oil in a large heavy oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Brown pork chops on both sides very well. Remove chops from pan.
Add the remaining 1 tbs of olive oil and heat. Add mushrooms, onion and garlic, and saute for about 3 minutes.
Add brandy and cook until liquid is almost evaporated. Add sauce and stir well. Add pork chops back to pan and cover them well with the sauce.
Cover the skillet with either an oven-proof lid or aluminum foil and bake at 300 degrees F for one hour.
