Two Brainy Ways to Prepare Boneless Pork Chops or Country Style Ribs!




Creamy Lemon Thyme Pork with White Wine!
 
For this dish you will need to buy: 4 boneless pork chops. You should have on hand: 2 cloves 'crushed' garlic, heavy cream, lemon juice, dry white wine, butter, lemon zest, paprika, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, onion powder, fresh dried thyme and kosher salt.

To begin, pan fry the pork chops in 4 tbs of butter and a bit of olive oil, along with the two cloves of crushed garlic, lemon zest, and seasonings listed, until browned and meat is white no longer pink.  Next, add half a cup of white wine (the wine can be omitted), then a good squeeze of half a small lemon and lastly, half cup of heavy cream- poured in slowly (if you want a 'creamy' version, just leave out the cream). As a finale, toss in a pinch of salt and as much fresh dried thyme as you like.


Country Style Ribs in a Creamy Mint Julep Sauce!


You can begin making this pork dish in the same as as you did for the pork chops in lemon thyme. Basically, all you are really doing regarding this dish is changing the herb from thyme to mint. However, you must omit the lemon juice and zest as it over powers the mint rather than being complimentary. Keep the heavy cream, as it truly makes this dish special.
