Dredge pork chops in seasoned flour.
Heat oil in a large skillet and brown chops 3-4 minutes per side. Remove.
Add onions to skillet and cook until softened and golden, about 8 minutes.
Add garlic and cook 1 minute.

Return pork chops to skillet, cover, and simmer 25-30 minutes until tender.
Chef's Comfy Tip
Don't rush the onions - cooking them slowly until they're golden and sweet makes all the difference in the gravy's flavor.
