Description

Ingredients

• 2 small red onions
• balsamic vinegar
• pork chop
• olive oil
• salt & pepper
• 2 tbsp chopped chives
• 1 clove of garlic (halved)
• 1 tbsp butter

Directions

• Start by preheating your oven to 450F.
• If you are roasting potatoes with your meal, I would recommend placing them in the oven 10 minutes prior to your onions.
• Prior to roasting your onions, slice them in half.
• Place them in a roasting pan with the sliced sides facing up. Season with salt & pepper, then drizzle with balsamic vinegar.
• Roast onions for about 20 minutes, or until soft and caramelized.
• While your onions are roasting, add about a tablespoon of olive oil into a pan on medium-high heat.
• Season both sides of your pork chop with salt & pepper.
• Place pork chop in the heated pan, cooking for about 5-8 minutes on one side, until caramelized. Flip pork chop, cooking for about 3 more minutes on the other side, until internal temperature reaches 145F.
• While the pork chop is resting (about 5-10 minutes), reduce the pan to medium heat. Place a tablespoon of butter in the pan, along with your chives and garlic. Heat until butter has melted and begins bubbling and turning brown.
• Drizzle butter over pork chop, serve with roast onions and your desired vegetable and starch sides!
