ONION PAN-FRIED PORK CHOPS



Onion Pan-Fried Pork Chops image

I made this up one day because I was wanting something different then the same old pan-fried pork chops (that is how my husband asked me to cook them that day). So I made this up real fast, and boy did he love them. Now he asks for them every time. I do this with boneless and bone-in pork chops. So it doesn't matter what kind you have on hand, just cook them up and enjoy.

Time 15m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (1 ounce) envelope dry onion soup mix
2 pork chops
¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 cup olive oil for frying

Steps:

  • Before opening the onion soup mix, use your hands to crush the larger bits of onion in the packet. Open the packet, and pour the mix into a shallow bowl. Stir in the flour.
  • Heat the oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat. The oil is hot enough when a pinch of the flour mixture sizzles when tossed into the oil. Coat pork chops in the onion soup mixture, and shake off the excess. Carefully place in the hot oil. Turn chops over after about 30 seconds to quickly sear both sides. Cook for about 4 minutes per side, or to desired degree of doneness.

PORK CHOPS WITH APPLES AND ONIONS



Pork Chops with Apples and Onions image

Sauteed apples and onion combine with pork chops for a tastiness that never disappoints.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 bone-in pork chops (loin or shoulder), cut 3/4 inch thick
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil or vegetable oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 large white onion, sliced
2 to 3 apples, cored and sliced (about 3 cups)
1 cup beer, white wine, cider, or chicken broth

Steps:

  • Trim the chops of excess fat. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat a 14-inch cast-iron skillet (if you have a smaller one, you'll need to work in batches) over high heat, and then swirl in the olive oil. Lay in the pork chops and don't move them for a few minutes, to assure a good golden sear forms. Turn and brown well on the second side for a total of about 10 minutes. Transfer the chops to a warm plate.
  • Swirl the butter into the pan. Add the onion and apples. Saute until the onion slices are lightly caramelized and the apples have begun to soften, about 8 minutes. Stir in the beer or other liquid. Return chops to the pan.
  • Cook until the pork is tender, about 15 more minutes (depending on the size of the chops), turning halfway through and covering the chops with the apple mixture. If the apple mixture needs a little thickening, transfer the chops to the warm plate again and simmer the mixture on high for a few minutes to reduce. Serve the chops over rice or mashed potatoes with a large spoonful of the apple-onion mixture over the top.

Tips for Making the Best Pork Chops with Onions:

  • Choose high-quality pork chops. Look for chops that are at least 1 inch thick and have a good amount of marbling. This will help ensure that the chops are juicy and flavorful.
  • Use a good quality olive oil. Extra virgin olive oil is a great choice for this recipe, as it has a fruity flavor that will complement the pork chops and onions.
  • Season the pork chops generously. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to season the chops. This will help to enhance their flavor.
  • Cook the pork chops over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from drying out. You should cook the chops for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through.
  • Add the onions to the pan. Once the pork chops are cooked, add the onions to the pan and cook them until they are soft and caramelized. This will add a delicious sweetness to the dish.
  • Serve the pork chops and onions immediately. Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro, if desired.

Conclusion:

Pork chops with onions is a classic dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. By following these tips, you can make sure that your pork chops are juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give this recipe a try!
