Ingredients

• 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
• 1.5 cups long-grain white rice
• 2 cups beef consommé
• 1.5 cups chicken broth
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoons paprika
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Season both sides of the pork chops with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat a large ovenproof skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat and add the vegetable oil and 1 tablespoon of butter.

Step 4

When the butter has melted and the skillet is hot, sear the pork chops for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set them aside.

Step 5

To the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and diced onion. Sauté the onion for about 3-4 minutes, or until softened and translucent.

Step 6

Add the rice to the skillet with the onions and stir to coat the rice in the butter and oil. Let the rice toast for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently.

Step 7

Pour the beef consommé and chicken broth into the skillet, stirring well to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

Step 8

Nestle the seared pork chops back into the skillet on top of the rice. Spoon some of the liquid over the pork chops to moisten them.

Step 9

Cover the skillet with a tight-fitting lid or aluminum foil and transfer it to the preheated oven. Bake for 30 minutes.

Step 10

After 30 minutes, check the rice and pork chops for doneness. The rice should be tender, and the pork chops should reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C). If needed, return the skillet to the oven for an additional 5-10 minutes.

Step 11

Remove the skillet from the oven and let it rest, covered, for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 12

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve hot.
