Ingredients

• 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
• 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 teaspoons garlic powder
• 1 teaspoons onion powder
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
• 2 cups chicken broth
• 0.5 cups heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (optional)
• 4 servings cooked white rice or mashed potatoes (for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and set aside.

Step 2

In a shallow bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Dredge each pork chop in the seasoned flour, shaking off any excess.

Step 3

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown. Transfer the seared pork chops to a slow cooker.

Step 4

Reduce the heat to medium, add the butter to the skillet, and let it melt. Add the sliced onions and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and slightly caramelized.

Step 5

Stir in 2 tablespoons of the seasoned flour mixture from earlier to the onions. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.

Step 6

Slowly whisk in the chicken broth, ensuring no lumps remain. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it thicken slightly, about 3 minutes.

Step 7

Pour the onion gravy over the pork chops in the slow cooker. Add the fresh thyme leaves, if using.

Step 8

Cover and cook on low heat for 4 hours, or until the pork chops are tender and the gravy is flavorful.

Step 9

Stir in the heavy cream during the last 15 minutes of cooking to make the gravy rich and creamy.

Step 10

Serve the pork chops hot with plenty of gravy over cooked white rice or mashed potatoes.
