I don't know why this hasn't been reviewed before.It's an excellent recipe. For personal taste only I omitted the chili flakes (for DH) and used chicken stock in place of the sherry ( for both of us) and we both loved the outcome. The chops were moist and tender (3/4 in thick chops) and the mushrooms just yummy. Served with cinnamon carrots, half a baked potato (they were big) and a mixed green salad. We had a great meal.

This was absolutely delicious! I did tinker a bit though due to personal preferences and gluttony in terms of sauce. Prior to pan frying (almost dry) I seasoned the chops with salt and pepper as we have no sodium issues. We are also somewhat piggy about sauces so I knew I'd have to make more. I used 2 decent sized rib chops but the whole sauce recipe to which I added about 1/2 cup of chicken broth. I was possibly liberal with the cream and sherry too. :) My chives are buried under a foot of snow so I had to sub green (Spring) onions. I will definitely make this again and again and think it would be a wonderful sauce on Pork Tenderloin too. Thanks to both you and you sister!

This is just yummy. No two ways about it. Lick the spoon clean as a toothpick in banana bread goodness. Very easy to prepare, calling "Diddles" (dinner =farm speak) before anyone could shoot off their boots by the fireplace. I also added a spot of chick stock and a splash of some special "back of the cabinet" for special occasions sherry. Perfect! For you, Zuri and your cookathon. oxo
