Ingredients
- 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 medium (chopped) yellow onion
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 2 15-ounce cans, drained and rinsed canned white beans
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 2 tablespoons, chopped (for garnish) fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Season the pork chops with salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder on both sides. Set aside.
Step 2
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 3
Add the pork chops to the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they develop a golden-brown crust. Remove the chops and set aside.
Step 4
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet, then add the chopped onion. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion softens and becomes translucent.
Step 5
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 6
Lower the heat to medium and add the canned white beans, chicken broth, dried thyme, and dried rosemary. Stir well to combine.
Step 7
Return the seared pork chops to the skillet, nestling them into the beans. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the dish simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the pork chops are fully cooked and tender.
Step 8
Taste the bean mixture and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if necessary.
Step 9
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Step 10
Serve the pork chops hot with a generous scoop of the beans on the side. Enjoy!
