Instructions

  • Season the pork chops with poultry seasoning and sprinkle lightly with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons of olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot and simmering, add the pork chops and cook for 5 minutes on each side. They should be well-browned on both sides. Transfer the chops to a plate and set aside.

  • Add the butter to the pan and heat over medium. Add the onion and sauté for 7 to 10 minutes, until browned. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute longer. Stir the flour into the onion mixture until well incorporated, then cook for 1 minute.
