4. Sauté for 5-7 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked through to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
5. Transfer pork chops to a plate and tent loosely with foil to keep warm.
6. Add the thinly sliced onion and 1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds to the same skillet. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the onion is softened and translucent.

9. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 3-5 minutes, or until the sauce has slightly thickened.
10. Season the sauce to taste with additional salt and pepper if needed.
11. Spoon the sauce generously over the pork chops and serve immediately. Enjoy!
