Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 medium-sized yellow onion, finely chopped
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 3 cups sour cream
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional garnish)
Instructions
Season the pork chops on both sides with salt, ground black pepper, and garlic powder.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the pork chops to the skillet. Sear them 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, then add the unsalted butter to the skillet. Once melted, add the finely chopped onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Sprinkle the flour over the onions and stir for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
Slowly pour in the chicken broth while stirring to create a smooth sauce.
Reduce the heat to low and whisk in the sour cream until fully incorporated. Let the sauce simmer gently for 2-3 minutes.
Return the pork chops to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the meat to coat. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the pork chops simmer in the sauce for 10-12 minutes, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and black pepper, if needed.
Remove the skillet from the heat. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
Serve the pork chops warm with the sour cream sauce drizzled over the top. Pair with mashed potatoes, rice, or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
