Ingredients
Scale
For the Crust:
- 4 bone-in pork chops, about 1 inch thick
- 2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1 cup shredded Gruyère cheese
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
1. Prepare the Crust:
- Season pork chops with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chops for 3-4 minutes per side until golden. Remove and set aside.
- Reduce heat to medium. Add butter, onions, and a pinch of salt. Cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onions are deeply caramelized. Add garlic and thyme; cook 1 minute more.
- Pour in wine to deglaze, scraping up browned bits. Simmer 2 minutes. Add beef broth and return pork chops to skillet. Spoon onions over chops. Top with shredded cheese. Broil 3-5 minutes until cheese is bubbly and golden.
