How to Make Berta's Chops Sauerkraut
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Season pork chops generously with salt and pepper. Brown pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown.
- Remove pork chops from the skillet and set aside.
- Add 1 medium onion, chopped, to the skillet and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon of sugar and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Add 1 (16-ounce) jar of sauerkraut, drained, and mix well with the onions.
- Return the pork chops to the skillet, placing them on top of the sauerkraut.
- Pour in ½ cup of chicken broth or water.
- Cover the skillet, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the pork chops are cooked through and tender. Internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
- Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley or caraway seeds (optional).
