Best Recipe for Smothered Pork Chops with Onion-Gingersnap Gravy
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- Four 6-ounce bone-in pork loin chops, 3/4-inch thick, trimmed
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 2 Vidalia onions, thinly sliced
- 1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 4 reduced-fat gingersnap cookies, coarsely crushed
Instructions
- Sprinkle the chops with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and the pepper. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chops and cook, turning occasionally, until browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer to the chops to a plate.
- Add the onions and 1/4 cup water to the skillet and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the onions are very tender, 12 to 15 minutes.
- Add the broth, ginger, thyme, lemon juice, gingersnaps and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Return the chops with its juices to the skillet and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, until the sauce bubbles and thickens and the chops are heated through, 3 to 5 minutes.
