Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
- 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons paprika
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1.5 cups chicken broth
- 1 cups sour cream
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a shallow dish, mix the flour, salt, black pepper, and paprika.
Dredge each pork chop in the flour mixture, coating both sides, and shake off any excess.
In a large skillet, heat butter and olive oil over medium heat.
Add the pork chops to the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown (they do not need to be fully cooked at this stage). Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute, until fragrant.
Pour in the chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the skillet to deglaze and loosen any browned bits. Bring the broth to a gentle simmer.
Stir in the sour cream until fully combined, creating a creamy sauce.
Return the pork chops to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Cover the skillet and let the pork chops simmer over low heat for 25-30 minutes, or until they are tender and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 145°F/63°C).
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.
Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired, and serve hot with your choice of side dishes, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables.
