How to Make Apple Cider Pork Chops

1. Season 2 (1-inch thick) bone-in pork chops generously with salt and pepper.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side, then remove and set aside.
3. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in the same skillet. Add 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced, and cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until deeply caramelized.
4. Pour in 1 cup apple cider and bring to a simmer. Nestle the pork chops into the onion and cider mixture.
5. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 10-15 minutes, or until the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) and the cider has reduced by about half, creating a delicious glaze.
6. Remove pork chops from skillet and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Spoon the caramelized onion and cider sauce over the chops.
