    Pork Chops with Sweet Browned Onions

    Adapted from © American Heart Association
    Diabetic Exchanges
    Serves 4; 1 chop and 2 tablespoons onion mixture per serving

    Rub
    1/2 teaspoon paprika
    1/4 teaspoon pepper
    1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
    1/4 teaspoon dried thyme, crumbled
    1/8 teaspoon salt
    ***********
    4 thin pork loin chops with bone (about 1 1/4 pounds), all visible fat discarded
    1 teaspoon canola or corn oil
    1 medium onion, thinly sliced
    1/4 cup water
    1 teaspoon sugar
    1 teaspoon steak sauce (lowest sodium available)

    1. In a small bowl, stir together the rub ingredients. Sprinkle over both sides of the pork. Using your fingertips, gently press the rub so it adheres to the pork.

    2. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil, swirling to coat the bottom. Cook the pork for 2 minutes. Turn over. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until no longer pink in the center. Be careful not to overcook; the thin chops don’t require much cooking time. Transfer to a serving plate. Cover to keep warm.

    3. In the same skillet, still over medium-high heat, cook the onion for 2 minutes, stirring frequently and scraping to dislodge any browned bits. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Cook for 6 minutes, or until the onion is richly browned, stirring frequently. Spoon the onion mixture over the pork.
