Skillet Pork Chops with Peas Carrots & Pearl Onions
This super-fast one-dish dinner, full of classic flavor, is such a crowd-pleaser that you'll want to work it into your regular weeknight dinner rotation. We call for bone-in pork chops to maximize flavor, but boneless pork chops are a fine substitution. To round out this meal, serve with rice or mashed potatoes.
