Modenese Pork Chops

There's not much easier and tastier than Modenese style pork chops!  They really are simple to make, require little time, smell divine while cooking, and taste delicious!  Italian food rocks!  I served this with scalloped potatoes, corn on the cob, sauteed peppers and squash, and baked Parmesan tomatoes.   Complete happiness.  I know it requires butter, but once in a while butter is worth it... and this is one of the times! 

INGREDIENTS:

4 Tablespoons unsalted butter

4 (1 inch thick) pork chops

½ cup dry white wine

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

1 teaspoon crushed dried rosemary

2 cloves garlic, minced

DIRECTIONS:

• In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat.  Sprinkle pork chops with salt, pepper, rosemary, and garlic. Cook pork chops in butter, turning once to brown evenly.
• Pour in wine and simmer, uncovered for 20 to 25 minutes, until chops are tender.
• Transfer pork chops to serving plate and spoon sauce over the meat.
