In a shallow bowl, combine the flour, salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Mix well.
Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel. Dredge each chop in the flour mixture, coating evenly on both sides. Shake off any excess flour.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and olive oil, allowing the butter to melt completely.
Place the pork chops in the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set them aside on a plate.
In the same skillet, add the sliced onion. Sauté for 3-4 minutes or until softened and lightly browned.
Pour the chicken broth into the skillet and stir, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring to a gentle simmer.
In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, cornstarch, and water until smooth. Slowly stir this mixture into the skillet.
Return the pork chops to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Cover the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the pork chops are tender and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 145°F/63°C).
Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired. Serve hot with mashed potatoes, rice, or steamed vegetables.
