Ingredients
- 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
- 2 pieces optional lemon wedges for serving
Directions
Step 1
Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel. In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Rub the seasoning mixture on both sides of each pork chop.
Step 2
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, sear the pork chops for 3-4 minutes on each side until they develop a golden crust. Remove the chops from the skillet and set them aside.
Step 3
Reduce the heat to medium and add 2 tablespoons of butter to the same skillet. Once melted, stir in the minced garlic and fresh parsley, cooking until fragrant (about 1 minute). Pour the garlic butter over the seared pork chops, covering them evenly.
Step 4
In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and the sliced onion. Sprinkle with brown sugar and sauté for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until caramelized and golden brown.
Step 5
Serve the pork chops warm, topped with the caramelized onions and an optional squeeze of lemon juice. Pair with your favorite side dishes for a complete meal.
