When you get tired of eating the same old, same old all the time, sometimes a tiny bit of effort will pep things up. This balsamic mushroom topper would be delicious on chicken or beef as well, but I use it to dress up pork chops. If you haven't used shallots before, they're small, brown onions that have a fantastic flavor. They make anything taste special! This easy meal goes great with mashed potatoes, rice, or any other sides.
