Easy Recipes for the Weekend - Basil and Sage Pork Chops

Here in Illinois we are in week 2 of shelter-in-place and we have a well stocked larder, but that does not mean we want to make something complicated every meal as we stay at home.  We have treated ourselves to interesting recipes.

Mint Meat Rub on pork roast was one meal this week

Last night it was Chicken Carbernara my husband made from scratch for the first time.

I wanted to help folks find quick easy recipes to make a tasty dinner or lunch with few ingredients and very little special prep.

I have shared a few in the past so you can check those out:

Vegetable Soup
Buttery Shrimp
Slow Cooker Chicken Creole
Beef Empanadas
Salsa Meatloaf
Saucy Chicken


Today I have a quick and easy pork chop recipe.  It is good with fresh or dry herbs.


Basil and Sage Pork Chops 

4 lean pork chops
1 Tbls olive oil
¼ cup water
1 Tbls fresh chopped (1 tsp dried)
1 Tbls fresh sage (1 tsp dried)

Directions:
Brown the pork chops in oil.  Add water.  Cover and simmer on medium high heat for 10 minutes.  Scatter the basil and sage over chops.  Add more water if pan is dry.  Cover and simmer for 10 minutes, or until chops are cooked through.  Serve with green beans.  I love to sauté the green beans in the pan after I remove the porkchops, just add a Tbls of butter nad stir until warmed.
