- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, and stir in the garlic. Season chops with salt and black pepper. Pan fry until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Place the chops into the prepared baking dish, and scatter the onions over the chops.

MOM'S SAUCY PORK CHOPS
As you can see from the title this was my Mom's recipe. It makes a wonderful sauce that even kids like. We used to scrape the dish to get the last little bit of it on our chops. I always wondered what would happen if you doubled the sauce ingredients and tossed in a little bit of rice. If you try it, please let me know:)

MOM'S TENDER AND JUICY PORK CHOPS
Brining the pork chops really makes a difference in this recipe. Once fried, they're tender and flavorful with a thin layer of crust. After they're fried, the pork chops simmer in a simple gravy filled with fresh onions and garlic. This is an easy to throw together dinner that requires very little work and is big in flavor. The gravy does call for a little white wine (which you don't really taste). If you do not drink, replace the wine with a little extra chicken broth. Also, you'll note there is no salt when cooking the pork chops. The brine adds plenty of salt to the meat.

Steps:
- Place all brine ingredients in a plastic bowl that has a tight-fitting lid. Stir. Add pork chops. Cover and keep in the fridge for at least 4 hours. (I know this is an extra step but it really makes the pork chops super tender.)
- Remove pork chops from brine and pat dry with a paper towel.
- Dip pork chops in egg wash.
- Then Italian bread crumbs to coat.
- Heat oil in a large skillet. Just enough to coat the bottom. Fry pork chops in the skillet for approximately 3 minutes per side. They should be a nice golden brown.
- Then set them aside.
- Remove oil from skillet leaving approximately one tablespoon. Add the onions to the skillet and saute on medium heat until translucent - about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for one more minute - stirring.
- Add the chicken broth and white wine.
- Add seasonings to the skillet. Simmer over low heat for about 5 minutes.
- Put the pork chops back into the skillet with the chicken broth mixture. I place them around the sides of the skillet overlapping slightly to form a circle.
- Cover and cook over low heat for approximately 20 minutes. Serve over rice or noodles.

MOM'S PORK CHOP CASSEROLE
A childhood favorite of mine. Brings back memories of cold winter evenings and warm family dinners. Mom always had a hot dinner on the table when Dad got home from work and every one would enjoy the bounty. Use bone-in chops because they have the most flavor. Serve with a crusty rye bread so as not to waste a drop of the yummy juices! Hope you enjoy this scrumptious and easy to prepare comfort food!

Tips:
- To tenderize the pork chops, use a meat mallet or rolling pin to pound them to an even thickness. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from drying out.
- Make sure to brown the pork chops well before adding the Pepsi. This will help to develop flavor and caramelize the meat.
- Use a good quality Pepsi for the best flavor. A dark cola, like Pepsi, will give the pork chops a richer flavor than a light cola.
- Don't overcook the pork chops. They should be cooked through, but still slightly pink in the center.
- Serve the pork chops with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or vegetables.
Conclusion:
These Pepsi pork chops are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The pork chops are tender and flavorful, and the Pepsi sauce is sweet and tangy. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
