Smothered Pork Chops from Swanson
  1. 1

    In a small bowl, whisk the broth and cornstarch until smooth. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Season the pork chops with salt and pepper. Cook the pork chops in the hot oil until well browned on both sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer the pork chops to a plate and set aside.

  3. 3

    Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet and heat over medium heat. Cook the onion in the hot oil, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir the broth mixture into the skillet and bring to a boil, stirring until thickened.

  4. 4

    Return the pork chops to the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook until the pork is cooked through, about 5 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the meat should register at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
