STUFFED PORK CHOPS IN MUSHROOM CREAM SAUCE
These chops are stuffed with mozzarella cheese and fresh basil. They are lightly pounded to tenderize and cooked in a mushroom cream sauce with white wine. Serve with buttered egg noodles. This dish is inspired by an episode of Lidia's Italy (she made veal chops) that my husband saw. As you may know (or experience with your own DH) he didn't remember the ingredients or cooking times, but he wants what she made!

- Remove chops to a baking dish.
- Reduce heat to medium low and cook onions and mushrooms for 3 to 5 minutes; season with salt and pepper.
