German Pork Chops with Sauerkraut
- 1 package Boneless, Thin, Pork Chops (Enough To Serve 4)
- 2 cans (14.5 Oz. Can) Sauerkraut
- 1 whole Onion, Medium To Large
- 1 cup Water
- Salt And Pepper, to taste
- Canola Oil, Just A Drizzle
- 4 whole Medium Potatoes
- 1/4 cups Milk
- Peel potatoes, cut into pieces, cover with water, put on the stove and bring to a boil.
- Once boiling, cover and lower the heat.
- Cook until a fork goes in easy.
- Drain and mash with milk, adding a little at a time.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- While potatoes are cooking, using a Dutch oven without the nonstick coating, drizzle in some oil.
- Remove fat from the pork chops and season them generously with salt and pepper.
- Slice up the onion.
- Add some of the pork chops to the hot oil and fry until brown.
- Continue frying until all are done.
- Place on a dish when done.
- You should have some brown stuff sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Now saute the onions until tender.
- Pour the sauerkraut into a large strainer and wash with sink water (I use my sprayer to rinse it all well).
- This helps reduce the sour taste, so if you like sour, you can rinse it less.
- Add the kraut to the pot with the sauteed onions along with a cup of water.
- Mix well.
- Add the pork chops back in and get them down into the sauerkraut.
- This will tenderize the chops and make them fork tender.
- You can taste now and see if you need more salt and pepper.
- Cover the pot and let it simmer while you are mashing up the potatoes.
- Serve the pork chops on the side and the kraut and juice over the mashed potatoes.
- Any leftover kraut is also delicious on hot dogs.
- Yummy!
