Pork Chops with Scalloped Potatoes

Directions

1. In a small saucepan, melt butter; stir in the flour, salt and pepper until smooth. Add broth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1 minute or until thickened. Remove from the heat and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, brown the pork chops on both sides in oil; sprinkle with additional salt and pepper if desired.
3. In a greased 13×9-in. baking dish, layer potatoes and onion. Pour broth mixture over layers. Place pork chops on top.
4. Cover and bake at 350° for 1 hour; uncover and bake 30 minutes longer or until meat and potatoes are tender. If desired, sprinkle with paprika and parsley.

Test Kitchen Tips

• A mandolin makes quick work of slicing potatoes and onions.
• Rib chops are recommended because they have a slightly higher fat content than leaner loin chops. Even with longer cooking times, they tend to stay juicy and flavorful. Bonus: They’re usually less expensive!
