Prep : 10 Total : 25 minutes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 4 pieces bone-in pork chops about 1 inch thick
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour divided
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cups chicken broth low sodium
  • 1 cup sliced onions thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon salt to taste
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • Season pork chops with salt and pepper. Dredge in 1/2 cup flour, shaking off excess.
  • In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Brown the pork chops on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, add onions and sauté until caramelized, about 5 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup flour over the onions, stir to coat and cook for 1-2 minutes.
  • Gradually stir in chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened.
  • Return pork chops to the skillet, nestling into the gravy. Cover and simmer on low heat for 20-25 minutes or until the chops are cooked through and tender.
  • Stir in heavy cream and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.

Notes
