Step 1
Pat pork chops dry. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
Step 2
Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Sear pork chops 3 minutes per side without moving—edges should brown.
Step 3
Remove chops to a plate. Add onion and mushrooms to the skillet. Cook 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.
Step 4
Pour in beef broth, scraping up browned bits from the pan. Return pork chops to the skillet. Simmer 5 minutes until gravy thickens slightly.
Step 5
While the pork cooks, microwave broccoli according to package. Toss cabbage with 1 tbsp vinegar and a pinch of salt.
Step 6
Serve pork chops and gravy over warm rice alongside steamed broccoli and red cabbage slaw.
