Ingredients
- 4 boneless pork chops
- ½ teaspoon each: salt and pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 large onions sliced
- ½ teaspoon herbs de provence or Italian seasoning
- ½ cup white wine
- 2 tablespoons flour
- ¾ cup chicken stock can sub beef stock
- 4 lices Swiss cheese
- ½ cup shredded gruyere cheee
- 1 cup croutons
- 1 teaspoon fresh tyme optional
Instructions
- Turn your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Dry the pork chops with paper towels then season both sides with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the pork chops for 4 minutes per side then remove them from the pan - they won't be fully cooked.
- Turn the heat down to medium and add the butter to the pan. Once it melts, add the onions and herbs de provence and mix well. Cover the pan and let the onions cook for 5 minutes. Stir the onions then cover the pan again and cook for 5 minutes more. Check the onions and stir a few times to make sure they are not browning too quickly. If they are, reduce the heat and add a little more butter.
- Add the white wine to the onions, stir, then cook for 1 minute. Mix the flour into the onions then add the stock and stir until it thickens. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Return the pork chops and any accumulated juices to the pan, cover the pork chops with the swiss and gruyere cheeses, add the croutons around the pork then sprinkle the thyme over the top. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
