1
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until golden brown. Remove and set aside.

In the same skillet, heat 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil. Season the pork chops with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Cook the chops for 5-8 minutes per side, depending on thickness, until desired doneness. Remove and keep warm.
