How To Make french onion dijon pork chops

Step 1

Caramelized Onions - In a large non-stick skillet over medium heat, add butter and oil. When it gets hot, add sliced onions, salt, and garlic; sauté for 2 minutes.

Step 2

Add freshly ground black pepper, stir, reduce the heat to medium-low and cover; cook for 8 minutes, stirring every couple minutes.
Step 3

Uncover and continue cooking for another 10 minutes, stirring often.
Step 4

Pour in Marsala wine and cook until the wine is mostly evaporated, about 10 to 12 minutes, stirring often.
Step 5

Using a slotted spoon, transfer the onions to a bowl and set aside.
Step 6

Pork Chops - Season pork chops on one side with salt, pepper, and garlic powder; set aside.
Step 7

In the same skillet over medium-high heat, add butter and oil.
Step 8

When sizzling, add chops, seasoned side down, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until brown; season the top with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Step 9

Flip the meat and cook for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
Step 10

Reduce the heat to medium and return the onions, including any accumulated juices. Add flour, a little at a time, and stir well before adding more; cook for 2 minutes.
Step 11

Pour in broth and mix until the sauce thickens and the texture turns creamy. Stir in Herbes de Provence.
Step 12

Return pork chops to the skillet, including any accumulated juices, and spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard on top of each. Evenly sprinkle cheese, enough to cover the chops.
Step 13

Cover and cook until the cheese is melted and the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145 degrees F.
Step 14

Serve pork chops over mashed potatoes, spoon sauce and caramelized onions on top.
