Description
Simple, tender, and packed with flavor, these French Onion Braised Pork Chops use just a few ingredients to create a rich, home-cooked meal your family will love.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound bone-in pork chops
- 1 package dry onion soup mix
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms (optional)
- Chopped parsley (for garnish – optional)
- Chicken broth (if needed to thin out gravy)
- 1/4 cup All-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup Butter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Heat oil in a large, oven safe, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Season pork chops with pepper, if desired, and brown on all sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
- Sprinkle onion soup mix over the pork chops. Pour in water.
- Transfer to 350 degree oven for 20-30 minutes, until fork-tender. Remove pork chops to a plate reserving the drippings in the pan.
- Meanwhile, in a separate small skillet, melt 1/4 cup butter over medium-low heat. Stir in 1/4 cup flour to make a roux. Cook for a few minutes, until mixture is a light golden color. Pour into the skillet with the pork chop drippings and whisk briskly as the mixture thickens. Add the pork chops back in and serve with gravy.
- Optional: Add sliced mushrooms to the skillet as you brown the pork chops and cook until soft and starting to caramelize.
- Sprinkle with chopped parsley for garnish, and serve immediately.
