Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bone-in pork chops
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 large Yellow onion
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt, black pepper, thyme, rosemary, and garlic powder.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the pork chops for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium and add the unsalted butter to the skillet. Once melted, add the yellow onion, thinly sliced, and sauté for 5-7 minutes until soft and caramelized.
Pour in the chicken broth and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Return the pork chops to the skillet, cover, and cook for 12-15 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reads 145°F (63°C) with a meat thermometer.
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the pork chops. Continue to cook uncovered for 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts and forms a luscious topping.
Remove the skillet from the heat. Let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes, then garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve warm.
