Smothered Pork Chops with Gravy

Step 1

Season the pork chops with salt and dredge in 1/4 cup of the flour, shaking off excess.

Step 2

Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the pork chops for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown; remove and set aside.

Step 3

Add the remaining butter to the skillet and cook the onion for 5 minutes until softened.

Step 4

Sprinkle the remaining flour over the onion and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.

Step 5

Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits, and bring to a simmer until the gravy thickens, about 5 minutes.

Step 6

Return the pork chops to the skillet, spoon the gravy over them, cover, and simmer for 10-12 minutes until the pork reaches 145°F and is no longer pink in the center.

Step 7

Serve the pork chops smothered in the onion gravy.
