Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pork chops
- 1 large Yellow onion
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.5 cups Chicken or beef broth
Instructions
Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt, pepper, and paprika.
Thinly slice the yellow onion and mince the garlic cloves. Set aside.
Lightly dredge both sides of the pork chops in all-purpose flour, shaking off the excess.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, place the pork chops in the skillet without crowding it. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer the pork chops to a plate and cover them loosely with foil to keep warm.
Reduce the heat to medium, add the butter to the skillet, and let it melt. Stir in the sliced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 7-8 minutes, or until the onions are soft and caramelized.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for an additional minute until fragrant.
Pour the chicken or beef broth into the skillet, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Simmer for 2-3 minutes or until the liquid has slightly reduced.
Return the pork chops to the skillet, spooning the onion mixture over the top. Let them heat through for 2-3 minutes.
Serve the pork chops hot with the caramelized onion mixture spooned over the top. Pair with mashed potatoes, rice, or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
