Skillet Pork Chops with Onion and Mushroom Gravy

This is another one of those delicious one-skillet meals that can be prepared in less than an hour and is the perfect weeknight meal.  Plus, this is comfort food at its finest.

You'll need 4 boneless pork chops. They will cook more quickly and evenly and for this meal, you can either make your own gravy or use one of those essential pantry staples, McCormick Pork Gravy.  

1 lb. boneless pork chops

salt

freshly ground black pepper

onion powder

granulated garlic

1/4 cup olive oil

1 medium yellow onion, peeled, cut in half and thinly sliced

8 oz. white mushrooms, sliced

2 packages McCormick pork gravy mix

2 cups water

chopped parsley for garnish

Lightly salt and pepper the pork chops and sprinkle with onion powder and granulated garlic.

Heat olive oil in a large cast iron skillet over high heat. Place pork chops in oil and sear on each side 2 - 3 minutes.

Remove from skillet, place on a plate, and set aside.  

Lower heat to medium and add onions and mushrooms to the skillet.

Cook, frequently stirring, for 4 - 5 minutes until vegetables have softened.

Add gravy mix and water to the skillet and increase heat to high.  Bring gravy to a boil.

Reduce heat to low and return the pork chops to the skillet. Let simmer for 10 - 15 minutes.

Serve over rice, noodles, or mashed potatoes. Garnish with chopped parsley.
