Ingredients
- 4 thick-cut pork chops
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 large onion, peeled and sliced
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place a roasting rack in a shallow baking dish or roasting pan.
- Season pork chops with salt and pepper; place onto the roasting rack. Place onions over chops. Pour about 1 cup water into the bottom of the pan, making sure it is not high enough to touch the chops. Cover with foil or a tight lid.
- Roast in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour. Cut into one chop to check for doneness; an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). When chops are done all the way through, remove the foil or lid and return to the oven for 15 to 20 minutes to brown slightly. Watch carefully during browning.

This was the most simple recipe for the outcome! It was delicious and my husband raved about it! Definitely a keeper!
How do I make this in a crockpot?
Family love this dish. Was easy and quick. I marinated over night and served with vegetables. I’ll try adding something to the water next time
Way too dry! Yuck, threw it all away.
This was the most tasteless and dry pork loin chips i have ever had.
I’m glad I read reviews first. I added a can of beer per one suggestion and I used Old Bay for my extra seasoning. Was a big hit, even with my two young grandsons! Will be using this again and my just not grill pork chops again.
way too much onion taste on the loin its self. it was however very moist and tender. Next time I will put small amt of onion and add some rosemary on the potatoes.
I cooked for 35 min and 10 to brown. The onions were ok but bland overall it was not good. Will not make again
In the skillet this is good. I added alfredo sauce just because I could tell the pork would be dry. To the sauce I added more onions and chopped mushrooms. I love the taste, before the sauce, just a little too dry.
I had thin pork chops so I only cooked it for 30 minutes. It smelled great while baking. The chops were very dry and chewy. Would not make it again.
Delicious. Easy to do. Next time I may try to add carrots and potatoes to the water.
I made this today. It was quite good. After reading the reviews I added seasonings and did marinate the pork chops for apx 8 hours. I also added beer and worcestershire to the water with remaining marinade. It really was flavorful and moist. I will definitely make this again. Great recipe!
The chops were very tender. I marinated the chops in Worcestershire sauce, garlic salt and Montreal steak seasoning for 1 1/2 hrs. I poured the marinade and water in the bottom of pan and followed cooking directions per recipe. Will make this again.
After reading other reviews, I added crushed thyme, crushed bay leaf and garlic powder to the water. I seasoned the chops with garlic, pepper and salt. It was tender and tasty. I think that you can season any way you want, the secret to this recipe is the method of cooking the chops!
I was sorely disappointed in this recipe. Even with added garlic salt on top & beer replacing water per others’ suggestions, the pork was bland, bland, bland. I followed cooking times to the letter, and it STILL came out dry, too. Bummer.
Reading the previous reviews, I made my own adjustments and I agree that more seasoning needs to be added or it’ll come out too bland. I brined it overnight and cooked it for 1 hr 20 minutes which was a bit too long. They came out OK but next time I will season just a bit more, brine overnight, and cook for a total of an hour and I think that’ll do the trick.
I followed the recipe to a T. My pork is as dry as card board. I even added more seasoning as others have suggested. The meat turned out dry and a waste of time! I could have grilled this pork in 15minutes and made it turnout better than this hour and a half. 1 star!!!
This was one of the easiest dishes to make & one of the best Pork dishes I have ever had. My family agreed! My secret for this is to add a little bit of dried rosemary, crushed & sprinkled over the chops along with the salt & pepper. Also I had added a touch of cooking wine to the water, for extra flavor. This dish has become one of my favorite dishes now! I’ll be craving again soon. YUM!
Marvelously moist – a cross between ribs and pork chops. I did liberally sprinkle the chops with garlic salt for a bit more flavour. Even the onions were gobbled up! Will definitely make these again!
I will not make this recipe again. The pork chops were very tough and dry and had very little flavor. Not good again.
I found this recipe ideal for working person. I noted comments about them being dry, so found a marinade: allrecipes.com Grilled Pork Tenderloin with Balsamic Vinegar. I put all that stuff in a plastic bag in the morning and went off to work. Instead of water in the bottom of the pan, I used the marinade. Because the balsamic vinegar is so dark, there really is no need to take the foil off to brown the pork chops. I think that will keep them more moist. I will make this again.
