Pour enough water        over the chops to cover. Boil them for 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the        chops from the pan. Drain the water from the skillet. Melt the butter        in the skillet. Return the chops to the pan and brown them on both        sides. Pour into the skillet enough Sheny to cover the chops, and        simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. The reduced Sherry makes a delicious        gravy for potatoes and/or the vegetables to accompany the chops.                Note:                One time I prepared 6 chops in an electric skillet. It was late in the        evening. I got through the boiling process and the browning process. I        poured the wine into the skillet, turned it down to about 200?F, and        then by mistake I fell asleep. About 6:00 in the morning I awoke to        the most delicious smells wafting into my bedroom from the kitchen. I        leaped out of bed remembering the chops in the skillet, and when I        uncovered the pan, I found the most gorgeous golden brown chops, and        surrounding them on the bottom of the pan was a very thick Sherry        syrup. When I touched the chops with a fork, they literally fell        apart, but they were very delicious. Though I wouldn't normally say        it about pork chops, they actually melted in my mouth.                Recipe by Paul West               MMMMM       --- SBBSecho 3.23-Win32        * Origin: The Fool's Quarter, fqbbs.synchro.net (1:105/500)       SEEN-BY: 18/200 105/7 10 11 44 45 81 500 106/201 128/187 129/14 305       SEEN-BY: 153/7715 154/110 218/700 226/30 227/114 229/110 206 300 307       SEEN-BY: 229/317 400 426 428 452 470 664 700 705 266/512 291/111 292/854       SEEN-BY: 320/219 322/757 342/200 460/58 633/280 712/848 902/26 5020/400       SEEN-BY: 5075/35       PATH: 105/500 81 229/426           |
