Grandma’s Skillet Pork Chop Supper
  1. 1

    In a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat, cook the bacon, turning occasionally, until done but not crisp, about 6 minutes. Move the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate and leave the grease in the skillet.

  2. 2

    Using the reserved bacon grease, sear the pork chops over medium-high heat until browned, 2 to 3 minutes on each side.

  3. 3

    As the pork sears, chop the bacon into small pieces.

  4. 4

    Add the potato and onion slices to the skillet along with the bacon. Pour in the water, cover, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Lower the heat and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
