ADVERTISEMENT

4 bone-in pork chops (about 200 g each)
1 oz (28 g) onion soup mix (such as dried onion soup)
1 ¾ cups (415 ml) low-sodium chicken broth
1 tbsp olive oil (for browning chops, optional)
Pepper to taste
Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Optional ingredients to enhance the dish:
Fresh mushrooms (add texture and earthiness)
Garlic (for extra flavor)
Dry white wine (to deglaze the pan and enrich the broth)
Instructions
Follow these simple steps to make melt-in-the-mouth, flavorful smothered pork chops:
1. Preheat the oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This will allow the meat to cook slowly and evenly, ensuring tender, juicy chops.
2. Prep the Chops
Season the pork chops with pepper and the onion soup mix. This step can be done a few hours before cooking to let the meat soak up the flavors.
Optional: Brown the chops in a skillet with a little olive oil over medium heat until golden brown on each side. This adds a crispy texture and caramelized flavor before cooking in the oven.

3. Arrange in the baking dish
