Cooking Tips

• For a gluten-free version, use a gluten-free flour or cornstarch to thicken the gravy.
• If the gravy is too thick, add a little more chicken broth to thin it out.
• To make the dish even healthier, use lean pork chops and reduce the amount of oil used for cooking.
• Leftover pork chops can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
