Smothered Pork Chops

Smothered Pork Chops

4 pork chops, about 1/2" thick
Seasoned Salt & Black Pepper
3/4 cup flour
6 thick slices bacon
2 onions, halved and sliced
12-oz can evaporated milk
1 cup chicken broth
1 can cream of mushroom soup

Fry the bacon in a large skillet until done. Remove to 9x13" baking dish. Add the sliced onions to the bacon drippings and cook until they begin to brown a bit. Remove them to the 9x13" pan. Season the pork chops with seasoned salt and pepper, dredge in flour and fry in the bacon drippings until browned on both sides. Remove them to the 9x13" pan. Stir about 3 tbsp flour into the remaining drippings until the flour begins to brown. Whisk in the evaporated milk and chicken broth and cook until smooth. Stir in the mushroom soup until well blended. Pour over the pork chops, seal with foil and bake at 350^F for 1 1/2 hours.

Very good! I'd leave the bacon out next time though. Inspired by a recipe in Maya Angelou's cookbook.
