Smothered Pork Chops ~ From Joe Simmer's Creole Slow Cookin' Serves 6-8 8 center cup pork chops 4 med. onions - sliced 1/4" thick 4 garlic cloves - chopped 3 tbsps olive oil 1/2 cup flour 1 tsp salt 1 tsp black pepper 2 tbsps chopped parsley 1 1/2 cups chicken broth Combine the flour, salt and pepper and mix well. Dredge the chops in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess. Heat the olive oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the chops on both sides and set aside. Add the onions and garlic to the pan and cook and stir for 3 min. Remove pan from the heat. Place a layer of onions and garlic in the crock pot and sprinkle with some of the parsley/ Top with a layer of chops and repeat until all chops, onion, garlic and parsley are used. Gently pour in the broth and cook on high for 4 1/2 hours or low for 7-8 hrs. Serve with rice or potatoes. Note: This recipe is delicious. The pork chops are falling off the bone - so if you don't want that - cook for about 1 hr. less.
