Pork Chops with Paleo Mushroom Onion Sauce

Pork Chops with Paleo Mushroom Onion Sauce

Ingredients:

- 2 Tbsp. + 2 more Tbsp. Ghee 

- 1 small onion chopped

- 1 Tbsp. crushed garlic

- 1 pound mushrooms

- 3-4boneless pork chops

- salt

- ground black pepper

- Cayenne

- 1/2 tsp. dried rosemary

- 1 cup chicken broth

Directions:

Wipe the mushrooms with a slightly damp paper towel to clean. Slice the mushrooms and set aside. (Or buy pre sliced mushrooms like me)

Heat a large saute pan over medium high heat. Add 2 Tbsp. of Ghee to the pan. Add the chopped onion and garlic and saute for about 2 minutes or until onions are translucent. 

Add the mushrooms to the pan. When the mushrooms begin to turn brown Sprinkle the mushrooms lightly with sea salt and ground pepper.  Cook until onions and mushrooms are brown and cooked down. This could vary depending on how cooked down you like your mushrooms.  Remove the mushroom and onion mixture from the pan and set aside.

Season the pork chops with the sea salt or Himilayan Salt, pepper and cayenne. 

 Add the remaining 2 Tbsp. of fat to the pan and allow the pan to get hot. Add the pork chops, making sure they are spaced apart, and brown for about 2 minutes on each side. 

Add the chicken broth and rosemary to the pan and the mushroom onion mixture and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover the pan. 

Allow to cook for an additional 10-12 minutes, flipping the chops halfway through (do not overcook the pork chop!). I used a meat thermometer to know when mine were done. 

Enjoy- Jessica
