Smothered Baked Pork Chops

Pork! The other white meat. I don't eat enough pork (or fish) and so I am trying to include them each
week. It won't last long, but I'm trying. 

This wasn't my favorite recipe. It was just ok. I didn't add the rosemary because I'm not a fan of rosemary. That may make a difference, but I really don't think it will. 

I can't really put my finger on what I didn't like about this. Maybe I got the wrong kind of pork chop and a thinner one would have been better? Who knows?

Give it a try and let me know if you liked it.
