Recipe of the Week

This is simply delicious! Don't stint....  :-)


Caraway Pork Chops Paprikash

 

                                    Boneless pork loin chops

2          Tsp                  Paprika, divided

                                    Salt and pepper to taste

1          Tbsp                Butter

1          Tbsp                Vegetable oil

1          Tsp                  Caraway seeds

2          Tbsp                Shallots, minced

½         Cup                  White wine

½         Cup                  Heavy cream

1          Tsp                  Dijon mustard

 

Sprinkle the pork chops with 1 tsp paprika and the salt and pepper.

 

Heat butter and oil in a large skillet. Sauté chops over medium heat about 10 minutes until both sides are browned and the meat is cooked through. Remove chops to a plate, leaving drippings in a skillet.

 

Add remaining 1 tsp paprika, caraway seeds, and shallots to pan. Cook, stirring for 30 seconds. Pour in the wine and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently for 2 to 3 minutes until liquid is reduced by half. Add cream and simmer until slightly thickened. Stir in Dijon mustard.

 

Return meat and any accumulated juices to pan and simmer about 3 minutes to heat through. Adding a bit more wine and cream will increase the sauce.
