Pork Loin With Red Wine Gravy
This pork loin is good with either rice or pasta and green beans make a nice side dish.
Ingredients
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 dash black pepper
1 dash salt
3/4 oz dry brown gravy (I did not use this as it would add a lot of salt, instead I used flour to thicken the sauce)
2 lbs pork loin
celery
onion
mushrooms
(for the mushrooms, onion and celery, I added more than this recipe originally called for. I think these can be added to personal preference)
16 fl oz red wine
Directions
Pre-heat oven to 350 °F (175 °C). Sprinkle pork chops with salt and pepper, and sear in a hot pan with a drizzle of olive oil.
Place pork in a 9x13" baking dish, and sprinkle with salt, pepper and garlic powder.
Top with onion and celery, and pour wine over all.
Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes.
When done baking, remove meat from baking dish and place on a serving platter.
Pour gravy packet mix into baking dish with wine and cooking juices, and stir until thickened. (For this portion, I placed my Pyrex dish on a burner on low heat and sprinkled in flour to thicken, using a whisk and SLOWLY adding the flour.)
Serve chops with potatoes, rice or pasta and pour wine sauce and veggies over the top.
