City Chicken (But It's Not Chicken!)

Ultimate winter, "feel good" food! This is a favorite at our house and the gravy just has to be served over some homemade, garlic mashed potatoes. Add some Chunky Cinnamon Applesauce and you have a wonderful meal! This recipe came from a '98 Taste of Home Magazine. This can be a bit on the salty side - exchanging the garlic salt for garlic powder and then using reduced sodium chicken broth would help.
SERVES 4 -6
Ingredients
- 2 lbs boneless pork, cut into cubes
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 cup butter or margarine
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 (1 7/8 ounce) envelope onion soup mix
- 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can chicken broth
- 1 cup water
- 6 small wooden skewers (If desired)
Directions
1
Thread chunks of pork on small wooden skewers. (I have skipped this step and it works just fine having the chunks of meat loose in the pan.).2
Combine flour, garlic salt and pepper on a plate.3
Roll kabobs or loose pork chunks in flour mixture until coated.4
In a large skillet, heat butter and oil over medium heat.5
Brown meat, turning frequently;drain.6
Sprinkle meat with soup mix.7
Add broth and water.8
Bring to very low boil.9
Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 1 hour or until tender.10
Remove meat and keep warm.11
Thicken the pan juices to make a wonderful gravy to put over the meat and mashed potatoes.

We all loved this! I did not use the skewers and I used garlic powder instead of the garlic salt. I thickened the sauce for a nice gravy and served it with mashed potatoes. It was very yummy and everyone, including the kids, liked this! I will be keeping this recipe to make again!

I cooked it in a crock pot & it worked out great. I was very salty for my taste. It might be from the soup mix or maybe the broth. I'll try reducing the salt where I can

Let me be the first to say "Yum!". The pork was soooo tender and the gravy was very flavorful and great over mashed potatoes. It was a little salty even though I used reduced salt broth. I cut up 1 pound of boneless pork chops but made all of the gravy. I didn't use the skewers just stir fried the pork.

This was really good. ALL of my family liked it so I'd give it 10 stars just for that reason!! There's one more meal that I don't have to worry about what I'm going to make different for the ones who don't like what I'm making! I beleive my sil made this once and I really liked it but for some reason I didn't get the recipe or I misplaced it. The pork turned out really tender. I bought boneless "pork for stew". I saw that this receipe made a lot of sauce, and especially since I'm the only one who loves gravy, I poured a small portion of it into a saucepan to make the gravy. I still had some left over. I made mashed potatoes as suggested and peas. A satisfying, comfort meal. Thank you for posting! This will be put on my "frequently made dinners" list!
