Annette Funicello’s Peanut Butter Pork Chops


I once posted a request for pork chop recipes on the Food TV Network community discussion boards to try and improve my technique(s) for making pork chops. I had the usual problem – my pork chops were coming out too dry and/or too tough.

Among the dozens of recipes, suggestions and people posted in reply was this one. Annette Funicello, the darling Mouseketeer of the ‘50s (my favorite one), and star of the Beach Blanket teen beach movies.
So simple, so good.
Ingredients
  • PORK CHOPS, 6
  • ONION, 1 medium, finely chopped
  • CREAM OF MUSHROOM SOUP, 1 can
  • PEANUT BUTTER, ½ cup
  • WATER, 2 cups 
Directions
  1. Brown pork chops in oil; remove from pan.
  2. Put peanut butter and soup in pan and heat, adding water gradually; stir until smooth.
  3. Add pork chops back to pan and add onion; bring to a boil.
  4. Reduce heat and simmer 50 minutes.
  5. Serve with rice.
