A delightful twist on classic skillet pork chops, featuring a flavorful onion-ginger gravy.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of oil.
Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the pork chops to achieve a good sear.
Season the pork chops with salt, pepper, onion powder, and ginger.
Season both sides evenly for a balanced flavor.
Sear the pork chops in the skillet until golden brown on both sides, about 4 minutes per side.
Avoid overcrowding the skillet to maintain a high temperature.
Remove the pork chops and set aside. Add sliced onion to the skillet and sauté until softened.
Stir frequently to prevent the onion from burning.
Deglaze the skillet with chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits.
The browned bits add depth to the gravy's flavor.
Mix flour with a small amount of water to form a slurry, then stir it into the skillet to thicken the sauce.
Ensure the slurry is lump-free for a smooth gravy.
Return the pork chops to the skillet, cover, and simmer on low heat for 20 minutes.
Simmering allows the flavors to meld and the pork to become tender.
Serve the pork chops with the onion-ginger gravy spooned over the top.
Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley for a pop of color.
