ingredients for the most simple and juicy creamy mushroom pork chop
- PORK CHOP. There are plenty of names for pork chop. You can use any pork chop you like, but I love to use loin pork chops for this recipe. It's the tenderest and leanest pork chop. But let's talk about the nutritional facts of the meat. Pork chops are a rich source of selenium, an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant mineral. The excellent source of protein is also high in zinc.
- MUSHROOMS. You can use brown and white mushrooms. They are a good source of vitamin D2, which your body turns into the active form of Vitamin D. This is needed to absorb calcium and keep your bones healthy. An exciting thing about mushrooms is that they offer some vitamin B12, which is fantastic for the vegetarian and vegan community. Polyphenols, selenium, vitamin C, are a few antioxidants that may have potential cancer-fighting properties in mushrooms. Another possible benefit of mushrooms is that they improve your gut health, thanks to their polysaccharides, which act as prebiotics.
- ONION. You can use yellow or red onion. Onions are nutrient-dense, which means they are low in calories (we don't count calories on CocosTastyWorld) but high in vitamins and minerals. They are loaded with 25 different varieties of flavonoids and antioxidants. Red onions contain anthocyanins (plant pigments), which can reduce the risk of heart disease and protect against certain types of cancer and diabetes. Onions are also a rich source of fiber and prebiotics, which may boost digestive health.
- GARLIC. Garlic is a source of flavory dishes and has many health benefits. It was used to reduce fatigue and enhance the work capacity of laborers. Eating high doses of garlic (3 doses a day) may protect the organs from heavy metal toxicity.
- BASIL. Sweet Basil contains eugenol. These antioxidants and others help fight free radicals in the body. The radical can increase the risk for a variety of health conditions such as arthritis, diabetes, and cancer. Sweet Basil may help reduce inflammation, protect against infections, prevent heart disease, and improve mental health.
- PARSLEY. I prefer fresh parsley for the taste.
- CREAM. 400g heavy cream. If you don't have heavy cream, use milk and wheat flour to thicken the sauce.
- VEGETABLE OIL. Use just a little bit to fry the pork chops.
- THYME. Fresh or dry, both work well in this recipe.
- PAPRIKA. We need sweet paprika powder for the seasoning.
- SALT.
- MARJORAM. I use dry marjoram herb for the seasoning.
- CORIANDER SEEDS OR POWDER. I love to use powder for the seasoning because it's finer, and you can spread it better over the meat. But I've done it with fresh stamped seeds, and it tastes as delicious as with the powder.
- OREGANO. This dish is the same with this potent herb.
sides
Choose your favorite side. This recipe really works with everything— rice, potatoes, plantains, yuca, pasta, salad or even just bread. But if you want a guess, try it with tagliatelle and the bacon green beans delicious honey glazed bacon green beans. Another suggestion would be to have rice with black beans, such as my Moro de habichuelas negra and delicious green salad.
tips
if you want the taste to be as strong as possible, season the meat early in the morning or even the night before. It has the time to absorb all the flavors.
