1/4 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
6-8 whole Bone-in Breakfast Pork Chops

1 stick of butter
1/4 cup Olive Oil or canola oil
1 stick of butter

1 whole Green Bell Pepper, Seeded And Sliced
1 whole Yellow or Red Bell Pepper, Seeded And Sliced
3 Tablespoons Flour
2 cups Chicken Broth
2 Tablespoons whipping cream
Directions:
1. Mix together the flour, season all, lemon pepper, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper in dish/bowl.
2. Rinse your pork chop off thoroughly. Lightly season the pork chop with season all, garlic powder, and black pepper.
3. Dredge the pork chops in the flour mixture.
4. Heat the olive oil/canola oil and 4 tablespoons of butter in a heavy skillet over medium heat.
5. Fry the pork chops in batches until well browned on both sides. Remove the chops from the skillet place in something that can go on the stove or in the oven to keep them warm.
6. Drain some of the excess oil in a bowl (do not pour oil down your drain). Add the onions, peppers, and a tablespoon of minced garlic to the same skillet and cook them, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Remove them to a dish and set aside.
7. Time to make your roux: To the same skillet, add 4 tablespoons of butter. Let it melt and then slowly whisk in 3 tablespoons flour. It will become pasty. Keep stirring/whisking until it becomes a dark brown color (not burnt). Whisk in the chicken broth a little at a time, getting out all the lumps. When it is a nice consistency, add the cream. Add more broth if the gravy is too thick.
8. Taste your gravy and if need be, add more season all, garlic powder, and black pepper. Add the onions and peppers, stirring them into the sauce.
9. Place the pork chops in a large baking pan. Pour the gravy, onions all over the pork chops. Place in a preheated (350 degrees) oven for 15-20 minutes covered (with aluminum foil).
