A delicious and hearty dish featuring tender pork chops smothered in a rich onion and garlic sauce.
Season the pork chops with salt and pepper on both sides.
Let the pork chops sit for a few minutes after seasoning to absorb the flavors.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sear the pork chops until browned on both sides. Remove and set aside.
Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the pork chops to achieve a good sear.
In the same skillet, sauté the onions and garlic until softened and fragrant.
Stir frequently to prevent the garlic from burning.
Sprinkle the flour over the onions and garlic, stirring to coat evenly.
This step helps to thicken the sauce.
Gradually pour in the chicken broth and soy sauce, whisking to combine and prevent lumps.
Whisk continuously to ensure a smooth sauce.
Return the pork chops to the skillet, cover, and simmer on low heat until tender, about 30 minutes.
Check occasionally and stir the sauce to prevent sticking.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Always taste before serving to ensure the flavors are balanced.
Serve the pork chops hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
