INSTRUCTIONS:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Soak sliced potatoes in a bowl of cold water to remove excess starch and prevent browning. This can be done a few hours ahead of time and stored in fridge.
- In a large sauce pan add 4 tablespoons of butter and olive oil. Heat over medium-high heat until hot. Add onion and sauté until caramelized. Sprinkle 2/3 cup flour over the top and cook until hot and bubbly. Slowly stir in chicken stock 1/2 cup at a time to prevent lumps and then milk. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened. Stir in cheese and chives until melted. Taste sauce, add salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat.
- Drain potatoes well.
- In a 10"x15" casserole dish evenly layer half of potatoes. Cover with half off cheese sauce. Add remaining potatoes, and then cover with remaining cheese sauce.
- Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes while browning pork chops.
- Combine 1 cup flour, salt, pepper, and granulated garlic until well combined. Dredge pork chops in flour mixture.
- In a heavy duty skillet heat 2 tablespoons butter and 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil over medium-high heat until hot.
- Cook 3 pork chops at a time until brown on both sides. Pork chops don't need to be cooked through as they will finish cooking in oven.
- Placed browned pork chops over potatoes.
- Repeat with remaining pork chops.
- Cook uncovered for 40 minutes until potatoes are hot, bubbly, and tender when poked with a skewer.
- Allow to rest 5-10 minutes before serving.
- Serve extra cheese sauce in pan over pork chops and garnish with additional chives, if desired.
