Pork Cutlets In Mushroom Gravy

August 26, 2024

Pork Cutlets in Mushroom Gravy is a comforting, rich dish that brings together tender, pan-fried pork cutlets and a savory mushroom gravy. The combination of juicy pork and creamy, earthy mushrooms creates a meal that is both satisfying and indulgent. This dish is perfect for a family dinner, a special occasion, or any time you want to enjoy a comforting, flavorful meal without too much fuss.

The pork cutlets are the star of the dish, and they cook quickly, making this meal ideal for busy weeknights. After lightly seasoning and pan-frying the cutlets, they develop a golden, crispy exterior while remaining juicy on the inside. The cutlets are then smothered in a rich, savory mushroom gravy that’s made with fresh mushrooms, onions, garlic, and a splash of white wine or broth. The mushrooms add an earthy, umami flavor to the gravy, while the creaminess of the sauce balances the richness of the pork.

The mushroom gravy is what makes this dish truly special. It’s easy to make and can be prepared in the same pan used to cook the pork, allowing the flavors to build as the pork releases its juices. The gravy is thickened with a bit of flour or cornstarch, and seasoned with herbs like thyme, rosemary, or parsley for added flavor. The result is a smooth, velvety sauce that coats the pork cutlets perfectly, creating a satisfying and indulgent dish.

Pork Cutlets in Mushroom Gravy is highly versatile and can be served with a variety of sides. Pair it with mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables to soak up the rich gravy. You can also serve it with a side of sautéed greens or a crisp salad for a refreshing contrast to the creamy sauce.

This dish is a great way to elevate simple pork cutlets into a flavorful, hearty meal. Whether you’re preparing it for a cozy dinner or serving it to guests, Pork Cutlets in Mushroom Gravy is a dish that will be enjoyed by everyone at the table.

    This recipe is amazing! I used fresh mushrooms instead of the soup, and my family loved it!

    I replace the mushroom soup with chicken soup and it was fire! 10/10 recommend!

      Wow, chicken soup sounds like a creative twist! I’ll have to try that next time.

    I don’t understand how people think this is great. It was too dry for me. Need more gravy.

    WOW, this dish is so good. I didn’t think I’d like it but I was wrong! Soggy breading?

    1. User avatar vincenzo.armstrong says:

      Soggy breading? I think it’s just the gravy that makes it soft! But it tastes amazing, right? 😋

  5. 5 stars
    Yummy! Makes me feel like home. My grandma used to make this.

  6. 5 stars
    Sally Ann, you’ve changed my life! This dish is so good and easy to make!

    Not a fan. It was way too salty for my taste. I guess I’ll stick with my usual recipe.

    Why not use fresh mushrooms instead of that canned soup? Would taste better, I bet.

    1. User avatar yong.gerlach38 says:

      5 stars
      I totally agree! Fresh mushrooms would make a huge difference in flavor. Canned just can’t compete!

    My husband declared this the best dinner ever! I am now the queen of pork cutlets.

      Sounds delicious! Comfort food really brings everyone together. What sides did you serve with it?

    I don’t wanna use that canned stuff, what about fresh mushrooms? 🤔

  12. User avatar bob.williamson26 says:

    Deff gonna try this! Hope it turns out like in the plate! 😂

    Too simple, I could’ve thought of this myself, but it worked I guess.

  15. User avatar roberta.gibson says:

    I followed it pretty much exactly, but I swear my cutlets got soft way faster than the note says. Still tasty though—just softer.

    1. User avatar Hotblack Desiato says:

      3 stars
      Huh, mine got soft too when I did it “exactly.” I think my cutlets were thinner and just couldn’t handle the bake time. Next time I’ll probably pour the gravy partway through instead of right away.

    2. 4 stars
      Good to know—mine usually stay a bit firmer if I let them brown longer first. But yeah, 425°F + extra time can turn them soft fast. Did you bake covered or uncovered?

  16. 5 stars
    This is the same as that recipe my mom made back in 86! Love it!

  17. User avatar hilario.beer says:

    I don’t know about all this mushroom soup. I mean, real chefs use fresh ingredients, right? Not from a can!

  18. User avatar Tom Bombadil says:

    Perfect for weekday dinners! Would definitely make again!

    1. User avatar melynda.batz says:

      Does that soup really make a difference? I usually make my own sauce. Seems healthier!

    2. 5 stars
      I totally agree! This is such an easy recipe. My kids loved it!

    I can’t cook to save my life but this was simple enough. What is a cutlet anyway?

  20. User avatar romeo.kemmer94 says:

    Super simple to follow. Even I could do it! 😄

  21. 2 stars
    I don’t know, the mushrooms were kinda weird. Shouldn’t it be more flavorful? I expected better.

    1. User avatar manual.morar60 says:

      4 stars
      I thought the mushrooms added a nice creaminess! Maybe yours were overcooked? Try adjusting the time!

    2. User avatar marcia.conn says:

      Dude, mushroom soup is kinda bland. You could add some spices to really kick it up a notch!

  22. 3 stars
    I am not sure if I did it right. My cutlets were tough. Guess I cooked too long…

  23. User avatar lyndon.buckridge23 says:

    It was okay but not what I expected, I wanted more seasoning. Maybe add onion next time?

    1. User avatar wellRespected says:

      4 stars
      I totally get you! A bit more seasoning and some onion would add a nice flavor boost. Definitely trying that next time!

  24. User avatar laverne.green says:

    Delicious! I added some garlic and it changed my life!!! Can’t believe a can of soup can taste this good.

  25. 2 stars
    Why does everyone love this? It’s like, just flour and eggs? Boring! 😒

    Mushrooms not for me, greasy mess. 1 star.

    Yummy cutlets! I used chicken instead by mistake, lol. Still good!

    Really? Just soup on top? I don’t know if that’ll work…

  30. 3 stars
    Do u really bake it? I just fried the cutlets and it was fine. Seems too much work.

    This was a real hit with my family! Super tasty and easy to make. Thanks, Sally!

  32. User avatar tommie.cronin says:

    So easy and quick to make! I love that I could toss it in the oven and relax. 4 stars!

    1. 5 stars
      I tried this recipe, and it was a hit! My kids ate it all, and I didn’t have to beg them. Super easy too!

  33. User avatar caleb.kirlin35 says:

    I’m skeptical about the temps—350°F to brown sounds low to me. I bumped the browning heat a bit and it came out better.

  34. 4 stars
    OMG, my kids love this! I doubled the mushroom soup and added some garlic. Yum!

  35. 4 stars
    I can’t eat pork. Can I substitute chicken instead?

    1. 5 stars
      Sure, chicken would work fine! Just make sure to adjust the cooking time since chicken needs to be fully cooked. Enjoy!

    Easy weeknight recipe, I had everything on hand. I used 1 can of soup and it was still plenty—couldn’t complain.

  37. User avatar Ms. Simone Friesen says:

    2 stars
    Just okay. The cutlets came out kinda dry. Maybe I cooked them too long?

    1. User avatar Torchbugs says:

      4 stars
      Maybe try cooking them for less time next time? I’ve had the same issue before!

    2. 2 stars
      I don’t know, but I thought they were supposed to be moist? Sounds weird!

  38. User avatar suspiciousCommentator says:

    It tasted ok, but my cutlets were kinda dry. Maybe I cooked them too long? 🤷‍♂️

    I found it a bit bland, might add some garlic next time.

    1. User avatar basementDweller says:

      2 stars
      Bland? Really? I thought the gravy was flavorful enough.

    2. User avatar freeman.schuppe says:

      5 stars
      Garlic sounds like a great idea! I usually add it to everything.
