**Easy From Quebec**
**Ingredients:**
– 1 pound of ground pork
– 1 onion, diced
– 2 cloves of garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon of dried thyme
– 1 teaspoon of dried sage
– 1 teaspoon of salt
– ½ teaspoon of black pepper
– 1 cup of chicken broth
– 1 cup of heavy cream
– 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour
– 2 tablespoons of butter
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
**Instructions:**
1. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground pork until no longer pink, breaking it up into crumbles as it cooks, approximately 5-7 minutes.
2. Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the pork. Continue cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant.
3. Sprinkle the dried thyme, sage, salt, and pepper over the pork mixture. Stir well to combine and allow the spices to become aromatic, approximately 1 minute.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, heavy cream, and flour until smooth.
5. Pour the cream mixture into the skillet with the pork and stir well to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
6. Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce thicken, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes.
7. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Cook the butter until it starts to turn a light golden brown, about 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently. Be careful not to burn the butter.
8. Once the sauce has thickened, drizzle the browned butter over the Easy From Quebec dish. Gently stir to incorporate the browned butter into the creamy sauce.
9. Remove the skillet from the heat and let the flavors meld for a few minutes.
10. Serve the Easy From Quebec over your favorite cooked pasta or mashed potatoes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a burst of color and freshness.
