  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  ---------------------------------
  4                     pork chops -- 4- 6 chops
  1              large  onion -- cut in quarters like an apple
  2        tablespoons  olive oil -- or pan spray the pan
  2        tablespoons  paprika -- optional
     1/4           cup  flour -- or more as needed
  2               cups  chicken stock -- or
                        2 cups water and enough chicken stock mix
                        to make stock needed

1. Put flour on a plate and flour the chops well on both sides. 

2. Heat the oil in a large skillet and brown the chops on both sides (do chops in batches if necessary). Place browned chops in a dutch oven, layering them if needed. 

3. Add the stock or water and stock mix to the pot, the onions, and the paprika is using. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to a low simmer. Cover pot. Cook, turning chops occasionally, until chops are tender, about 35-40 minutes.

4. Oven Note: I do my chops in the oven like this: 
1. Preheat the oven to 400 or 425 degrees.
2. Spray a casserole dish large enough to hold all of the chops with cooking spray.  Add the chops, sprinkle with salt and pepper, toss on the onions. Mix the chicken stock with flour (you might want to use less stock and less flour) and pour over chops and onions.
3. Cover or not with foil, and bake for 40 minutes. Or you can cook them at 350 degrees for 1 hour, but I don't like waiting that long for dinner.  :)
