🥩 Pork Chops with Onion Soup Mix
A super easy and flavorful way to cook pork chops is to use Onion Soup Mix as a seasoning. It gives the meat a savory, slightly sweet flavor and keeps it juicy.
🧾 Ingredients
- 4 Pork Chops (bone-in or boneless)
- 1 packet Onion Soup Mix (about 1 oz / 28 g)

- Brush both sides lightly with olive oil or butter.
- Sprinkle onion soup mix evenly over both sides.
3️⃣ Cook
