This and when I make German Knocks and Chops are my more favored way to make pork chops

Knocks?

Sausage?

40 minutes sounds like a long time to cook pork chops; must be a very low simmer or some thick chops!

I love paprika, but usually use Spanish not Hungarian. Will give it a whirl.

Thanks for the recipe.

Both, I like to use thick cut Chops and a low simmer will make them very tender

Yeah, Ron, but if you want a tip on this from a real Hungarian, the paprika has to be the hot kind of Hungarian paprika for this to be a real Hungarian dish...

I made it last night and it was quite nice. Next time, I would use less broth and more flour. I added some garlic to it as well.

I did not have Hungarian paprika so I mixed 1/3 hot and 2/3 sweet-smoked Spanish paprika.

Instead of using all the gravy on top of pork (which it makes a lot of), I stirred in egg noodles and let them absorb some of the gravy. Worked out well.

I used thick chops and 40 minutes was acurate. Used a large dutch oven Cruset.

I made it again last night as I wanted to "master" this recipe. I have it down now and made a few changes to the recipe:

Used double cut bone-in pork chops
Added sliced mushrooms when adding the peppers
Used more flour, and touch less broth
Added egg noodles to liquid after the sour cream (used "low fat" sour cream)
1/2 clove of garlic per pork chop
1/4 tsp tumeric stirred in the oil before browning the pork chops

Very nice!!!!! My mindset goes like this, If you like a recipe, Tweak it to your own tastes and make it your own!!!!!

I will try it with a bone in. I've found when using bone in, it usually adds depth to the flavors
