Creamy Herbed Pork Chops

Ingredients

• 4 thick-cut boneless pork chops
• 1 teaspoon Montreal steak seasoning , or to taste
• 2.5 tablespoons all-purpose flour , or as needed
• 1 tablespoon dried basil
• 1 teaspoon instant beef bouillon granules
• 5 tablespoons butter , divided, or as needed
• 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 2 cups milk

Instructions

1. 1

   Season pork chops on all sides with steak seasoning. Mix flour, basil, and bouillon granules together in a small bowl.

2. 2

   Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add seasoned chops and cook until browned and only slightly pink in the center, 7 to 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Transfer chops to a plate.

3. 3

   Add remaining butter to the skillet as needed so that about 3 tablespoons pan drippings remain. Stir pepper into pan drippings and cook for 1 minute. Add flour mixture and cook, stirring constantly, until browned, about 2 minutes. Gradually whisk in milk and bring to a simmer over medium heat; cook, stirring constantly, until thick and bubbly, 4 to 6 minutes.

4. 4

   Serve hot sauce over pork chops.
