Cornbread is always a tasty pairing with anything that features pork. Or crusty French baguette or a slice of Artisan bread for a milder flavour. Add a cooked green veggie like broccoli or baked asparagus to your plate and you have a hearty, balanced meal.

Even though pork is a mild protein, smothered pork chops in this rich onion gravy calls for bold flavoured wine. Try a pinot noir to refresh your palate.

how to store leftovers
Cool pork chops completely and store in an airtight container. Refrigerate for up to 3 days.
