  • 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Description

 

  1. Season pork chops with seasoning salt and pepper.

  2. Heat oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until butter is melted.

  3. Add pork chops to skillet and sear for 5 minutes per side, until golden brown. If skillet isn’t big enough, cook the pork chops in batches.

  4. Transfer to a plate and keep covered.

  5. Return skillet to heat and add a tablespoon of butter; melt over medium heat.

  6. Stir in sliced onions and add a pinch of salt. Cook onions for 12 minutes, or until very soft and caramelized, stirring frequently.

  7. Add garlic and fresh thyme; continue to cook for 30 seconds.

  8. Pour in chicken broth and using a wooden spoon, scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan.

  9. Whisk in heavy cream and simmer for 1 minute.

  10. Return pork chops and all the pork juices to the skillet.

  11. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook for 3 more minutes, or until pork is completely cooked through and sauce has thickened.

  12. Remove from heat; garnish with parsley and serve.

Quick Notes:

  • Store completely cooled pork chops in an airtight container and keep in the fridge for 3 to 4 days.
