1. 1

   Prepare the Pork Chops

   Season the pork chops with salt and black pepper on both sides.

2. 2

   Sear the Chops

   In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chops and set aside.

   Make the Gravy

   In the same skillet, add chopped onions and minced garlic. Sauté until the onions are translucent. Sprinkle flour over the mixture and stir for 1-2 minutes.
