One of my coworkers decided to give me a sample of a crock pot pork stew his wife had made. It was pretty good and I asked for the recipe, so I could give it a try; didn't get it though. Anyway, I was trying to decide what to make for dinner one day and boneless pork loin chops were in the freezer. Now the question was, how to prepare them? I remembered the stew, so figured I'd attempt to recreate it by thinking about the ingredients I'd seen and tasted. While my coworker's wife had used a pork roast, I was using the pork chops instead.
I thought it came out pretty well, but my husband was going to be the real taste tester as he is not a real fan of pork. He loved it! So here's my sort of copy cat version of the stew; working off memory instead of a real recipe.
dish with nonstick cooking spray. Begin
placing layers of ingredients inside:
pork chops; potatoes and onion mixed together; sprinkle spices evenly;
kidney beans; tomatoes.
In a small bowl, whisk
flour into the beef broth to create a slurry; pour over all ingredients in the
crock pot dish. Cover, set on low and
cook for 6-8 hours; potatoes, beans and pork should be fork tender.
