  7. Uncover frying pan and cook pork chops approximately 15 minutes longer or until the liquid is reduced to 1/4 cup (the gravy will be very thick - if too thick, additional milk can be added) or until the internal temperature reaches 155 degree F. on a meat thermometer.  Remove from heat, spoon gravy over pork chops, and serve.

  8. NOTE:  I added some canned diced green chile peppers to the gravy for an extra zip.
