Creamy Garlic Pork Chops
This is the pot in the photo. Three bone-in chops in a pale garlic cream sauce, herbs through the sauce, and a black slow cooker. No flour. No sugar. One chop is about 310 calories, 34g protein, and 3g net carbs. Three in the pot is the picture, not three servings.Use thick bone-in chops so the protein lands near 34g. Garlic, broth, and cream make the sauce. No flour thickener. That is what misses the 3g line. The cream goes in near the end so it does not split.Four hours on low. The chops should be tender and the sauce glossy around them. That is the look in the cooker.

The Secret to the Sauce
Add the cream in the last 30 minutes. In for the whole cook it can split and look curdled. Garlic and broth give the base. A little Parmesan or cream cheese thickens it without flour. Stir it in off the high heat so it stays smooth.Prep Time: 10 mins
