Sometimes a sauce is just a sauce, but with these tender chops, it really makes the dish. If you like a little spice, mix a pinch of nutmeg with the black pepper before you sprinkle it on the meat. —Kathleen Specht, Clinton, Montana

Ingredients

  • 4 bone-in pork loin chops (7 ounces each)
  • 1 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
  • 1 teaspoon butter
  • 1 green onion, finely chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup fat-free milk
  • 3 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese
  • 1 tablespoon white wine or reduced-sodium chicken broth

Directions

  1. Preheat broiler. Sprinkle pork chops on both sides with pepper; place on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Broil 4-5 in. from heat 4-5 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 145°. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
