Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 large yellow onion
- 3 pieces garlic cloves
- 1 cup canned crushed tomatoes
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Instructions
Season the pork chops on both sides with salt, black pepper, and paprika.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the pork chops and set aside.
Lower the heat to medium and add unsalted butter to the skillet. Once melted, add the thinly sliced onion and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly caramelized.
Add minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste.
Gradually pour in the chicken broth, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Next, add the crushed tomatoes, dried thyme, and sugar. Stir well to combine.
Return the pork chops to the skillet, nestling them into the tomato and onion gravy. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes or until the pork chops are fully cooked and tender.
Taste the gravy and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve hot. This dish pairs perfectly with mashed potatoes, rice, or crusty bread.
