Smothered Pork Chops

Instructions

1. 1
   Pat pork chops dry and season well with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika. Dredge lightly in 1 tablespoon flour.
2. 2
   Heat butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Sear pork chops for 3 minutes per side, until golden. Remove to a plate.
3. 3
   To the same pan, add sliced onions and sauté with a pinch of salt until caramelized, about 6-8 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 minute more.
4. 4
   Sprinkle remaining 1 tablespoon flour over onions. Stir and cook for 1-2 minutes.
5. 5
   Gradually whisk in chicken broth, Worcestershire sauce, and thyme. Bring to a simmer, stirring until gravy thickens, 3-4 minutes.
6. 6
   Return pork chops and juices to skillet, spooning gravy over the top. Cover and simmer on low for 15-18 minutes, until pork is tender and cooked through.
7. 7
   Garnish with parsley and serve hot with plenty of onion gravy.
