A delightful skillet dish combining tender pork chops with golden potatoes and caramelized onions, all simmered in a flavorful broth.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the pork chops to prevent sticking.
Coat the pork chops with flour and place them in the skillet. Brown for about 4 minutes on each side.
Shake off excess flour before placing the pork chops in the skillet for an even coating.
In a bowl, mix the Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Sprinkle half of this mixture over the pork chops.
Use freshly grated Parmesan for the best flavor.
Layer the potato slices over the pork chops, then sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan mixture. Top with onion slices.
Slice the potatoes and onions thinly for even cooking.
Pour the beef broth and lemon juice over the layered ingredients. Cover the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 40 minutes.
Check occasionally to ensure the liquid doesn't evaporate completely; add a splash of water if needed.
Serve the pork chops with the potatoes and onions on a plate, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
For a touch of freshness, garnish with chopped parsley or thyme.
