Our Creamy Lemon Meatball recipe was so popular that we adapted it for rich and hearty pork chops. In this version, we use the same flavorful Boursin sauce seasoned with lemon zest and fresh herbs, but we subbed orzo for egg noodles because we loved the way the pasta absorbed the Boursin sauce. Garnish with extra fresh herbs and a squeeze of lemon for a vibrant and delicious dinner.

4) After the cook, remove pans from Suvie. Whisk zest from 1 lemon into the Boursin mixture. Remove pork chops from packaging, pat dry, and transfer to pan with Boursin, turning to coat in sauce. Transfer pork chops to a cutting board, allowing excess sauce to drip back into the pan.

5) Add orzo to Boursin mixture, stirring to incorporate. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Divide orzo between plates and top with pork chops. Garnish with fresh herbs and serve.

Well I made this and the pork chops were not done, had to finish cooking them on the stove. The sauce never thickened it was really watery. This recipe needs to be checked. I followed it exactly. Unless there is something wrong with my Suvie. Thanks
