PORK CHOPS
1/2 c flour
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
4 bone in the center cut pork chops (about 3/4 inch thick)
2 Tbsp vegetable oil

2 Tbsp butter melted
1 medium onion cut in half and sliced thinly in half circles
3 clove garlic minced
2 Tbsp flour
1 1/4 c chicken broth
1/2 c heavy cream
1/2 tsp fresh thyme leaves
