Pork Chops with Caramelized Onions and Baked Parmesan Potato "Chips"


These dishes are super easy and so delicious.


Pork Chops with Caramelized Onion

4 Servings

1 TBS Olive Oil
4 Pork Loin Chops (1/2" thick)
Adobo Seasoning (our HOUSE seasoning)
1 LARGE Sweet Yellow Onion, cut into 1/2" slices (1 Softball size onion or 2 baseball size)
1 Cup water

Sprinkle chops with Adobo (to taste). In a skillet, heat oil over medium/high heat. Brown pork chops on each side. Add onions and water to pan. Cover, reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes. Turn chops over, cover and continue cooking till all the water evaporates and onions turn light to medium brown (this can take up to 45 minutes). Remove chops from pan and serve with onions on top. The onions cook down and become so sweet. Enjoy !


Parmesan Potato "Chips"

4 Servings

4 Medium Yukon Gold Potatoes; sliced approx 1/4" thick
3 TBS Olive Oil
Garlic Salt (to taste)
Onion Powder (to taste)
Grated Parmesan Cheese

Heat oven to 425 degrees. Wash potatoes; dry. Slice potatoes (I use a Mandolin and slice them approx 1/4" thick). Place potatoes in a large bowl. Add Olive Oil, Garlic Salt and Onion Powder. Mix together making sure all the potato slices are coated with oil and seasoning. Go ahead ...use your hands! Place on a cookie sheet (single layer) and sprinkle with Parmesan Cheese. Bake for 10 minutes, turn and bake another 10 minutes or until golden brown. YUMMY!

I have a hard time getting our 4 year old to eat potatoes. She ate these with gusto!

  1. I made the potatoes today and we all loved them which is a very rare thing in our house. Even Holly liked them and she dislikes potatoes and cheese but now likes parmesan!!
