Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bone-in pork chops
- 1 large Yellow onion
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves
- 2 teaspoons Fresh rosemary
- 2 teaspoons Fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoons Black pepper
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
Instructions
Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Peel and thinly slice the yellow onion into rings. Mince the garlic cloves. Set both aside.
In a small bowl, mix the fresh rosemary, fresh thyme, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil to make an herb paste.
Rub the herb paste onto the pork chops, ensuring even coverage. Let them rest at room temperature for 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat.
Sear the pork chops for 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until soft and fragrant.
Deglaze the pan by adding the apple cider vinegar, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the skillet.
Sprinkle the flour over the onions and garlic, then stir to coat. Slowly pour in the chicken broth while stirring to create a smooth sauce.
Return the seared pork chops to the skillet, spooning some of the onion sauce over them.
Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes or until the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Remove the skillet from the oven and stir in the unsalted butter for added richness.
Let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes before serving with the onion herb sauce drizzled on top. Enjoy!
