Smothered Pork Chops with Onions in Red Eye Gravy

Step 1

Place the pork chops in a bowl. Drizzle with the olive oil, and coat in your choice of seasonings.

Step 2

Pour the coffee over the pork chops, and place them into the fridge.

Step 3

Add the onions to a skillet over medium heat on the stove, and add just enough salt to have them start releasing the moisture from them. Saute until tender and caramelized then set aside.

Step 4

Mix the gravy packet with the water, and start cooking in a skillet over medium low heat.

Step 5

Add the bacon grease to a skillet, and sear the pork chops over medium high heat.

Step 6

Place the coffee from the pork chops into the gravy, and saute another few minutes until thickening.

Step 7

Add the pork chops and onions to the gravy in the skillet, and saute over medium low heat covered for 15-20 minutes. You can add additional water to the gravy if it is too thick.
