Instructions:
-
Preparation:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
-
Brown the Pork Chops:
- In a 10-inch skillet, heat over medium-high heat.
- Brown the pork chops for 1-2 minutes per side until they develop a golden crust.
-
Season the Chops:
- Season both sides of the pork chops with salt and pepper to taste.
-
Prepare the Baking Pan:
- Place the browned pork chops in a 13×9-inch baking pan.
- Cover the chops with sliced onions for added flavor.
-
Make the Gravy Base:
- In the same skillet used for browning the pork chops, pour in the chicken broth.
- Add the thyme and garlic powder to infuse the broth with flavor.
- Stir well and pour this mixture over the pork chops and onions in the baking pan.
-
Bake:
- Cover the baking pan with foil to seal in the flavors.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until the pork chops are tender and cooked through.
-
Prepare the Gravy:
- Once the pork chops are cooked, transfer them to a serving platter and keep warm.
- Pour the liquid from the baking pan into a 10-inch skillet.
- Heat the liquid over medium heat until it just starts to boil, about 1-2 minutes.
-
Make the Roux:
- While the liquid is heating, prepare the roux. In a jar with a lid, combine water, flour, salt, and pepper.
- Shake the jar vigorously to mix the ingredients well.
-
Thicken the Gravy:
- Slowly pour the flour mixture into the hot liquid in the skillet, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming.
- Continue cooking and stirring until the mixture comes to a full boil, then let it boil for 1 minute to thicken.
-
Add Mushrooms:
- Gently stir in the sliced fresh mushrooms, allowing them to cook in the thickened gravy for about 2 minutes.
-
Finish with Sour Cream:
- Reduce the heat to low and stir in the sour cream until it’s fully incorporated into the gravy.
- Continue cooking and stirring constantly until the gravy is heated through, about 1-2 minutes more.
-
Serve and Enjoy:

- This delicious gravy also pairs wonderfully with baked potatoes, offering a delightful addition to your meal.
