PORK CHOPS with MUSHROOM GRAVY

2 boneless center cut pork "chops" 4 oz
2 TBSP ap flour
salt & cracked black pepper
non stick spray-olive oil
6-8 oz mushrooms sliced
1 TBSP onion/shallot minced
2 TBSP white wine
2 TBSP pioneer brown gravy(from a packet)
2/3 c water

Salt and pepper the meat on both sides. Place a 1 TBSP of flour over each chop.
Pat and turn over the meat to coat both sides with the flour. Set aside.
Stir the gravy mix into
Spray a non stick skillet with cooking spray-in a cool pan- place all mushrooms in a single layer. Turn heat on to medium high. Cook turning occasionally with a fork till all are golden. Remove to a plate.
Spray pan again, and add meat. Do not move it around for a 1-1/2 minutes. Turn over when there's a little golden color and cook the other side the same way. Remove to a plate.
Add the onion and cook stirring for 2-3 minutes. Add the mushrooms back in, stirring for a minute, then add the wine.
Continue cooking for 1-2 minutes, until wine has mostly disappeared.
Stir the gravy/water mix again to combine and pour it into the mushroom-onion mix. Cook stirring for 2-3 minutes until thickened.
Add the chops back to the pan, covering with the mushrooms/gravy.
Cover and turn the heat off, and let sit for 5 minutes to finish cooking the meat.
You don't want to over cook this, cook just till the pink is gone.

Delicious over some Idahoan instant potatoes cooked the LIGHT way!

It comes together in less than 30 minutes!
