Herbed Pork Chops

This is a simple, yet delicious entrée. Elegant enough for a dinner party, especially Variation 2. Update: My favorite is the cream/tarragon version, but I decided it needed more sauce. When I make it I triple all of the sauce ingredients.

Great recipe! I used the white wine option for the sauce. I added some milk when I noticed that the sauce was turning out to be very thin. The chops were delicious!

    FABULOUS! Here's what I did- I love lots of sauce, so I doubled it and used 3/4 cup of chicken broth, 3/4 cup of sherry and 1 1/2 cups of heavy cream. I used thyme and also added some dry mustard. It was to die for, very delicate! My pork chops were a little thick (costco). Next time I will use a pork loin and slice it into medalions and serve it over wild rice. Thank you so much.

    I tried the creamed version using cream and tarragon (variation at the bottom of the recipe) and it was most delicious. I will definitely make it again.

    This was a big hit at my dinner party, however, I felt there didn't seem to be a big flavor. Maybe they should be marinated to pick up more of the taste.
