4 to 6 bone-in pork chops
1 tablespoon of olive or canola oil
Salt & pepper, to taste
1/2 of a large sweet Vidalia onion, sliced
1/2 of a large green bell pepper, sliced
Sprinkling of Slap Ya Mama Cajun seasoning, to taste
Butter to equal 1/4 cup fat
1/4 cup of all purpose flour
1 cup of water
1 cup of half and half
Preheat oven to 325 degrees (can also finish this on the stovetop, if desired).
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chops and sear, sprinkling the top with salt and pepper. Turn and sear on the other side; season that side also. Remove to a baking pan.
Add the onion and green pepper to the skillet and saute until lightly caramelized. Transfer to the top of the chops; sprinkle with Cajun seasoning.
In the same skillet, add enough butter to bring fat to 1/4 cup total. Stir in the flour until fully incorporated and no lumps remain. Add the water to the half and half, and slowly pour into the flour mixture, stirring constantly. Cook and stir for 5 minutes. Pour over the chops, covering completely.
Cover the dish and bake at 325 degrees for 1 to 1-1/2 hours or until tender. Can also slow simmer on the stovetop in a covered skillet. Serve over a bed of rice or mashed potatoes.
