This is an easy dish to prepare, and we liked it quite a bit. I will make it again, but I will stack it a little differently. I'll put the catsup on top of the pork chop, followed by the lemon, then the onion, and finally the brown sugar. It looks a little strange, but it has good flavor. I did brine my pork chops first using only salt, sugar, and water. My side dish was capellini made with Lemon Pasta Sauce from this site. Thanks for the recipe, Jose!

I was looking for something healthier than fried and different for dinner. I first baked this w/a slice of orange because thats what was already in fridge. I lightly seasoned thin chops w/onion powder,accent&blk pepper. I also put ketchup on half and sweet baby ray's on the rest...tangy&sweet both ways. Quick,easy, moist and we enjoyed w/roasted potatoes and fresh corn.

This is one of those dishes my mom made when I was a little girl so I grew up loving this dish. I think its originally from a 1960s version of a Betty Crocker cookbook. I don't even have it written down because I have just always known how to make it but I jumped on here to look at the cooking time. FYI, don't try to cook this in less time than it says b/c the pork chips will be too tough. They are much more tender when you cook them the full hour. I couldn't remember if it was an hour and a half though.

This dish was delicious!!!! I added a bit of freshly squeezed lemon juice after it was done cooking. I also substituted Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce for the ketchup. The onions and chops turned out so tender and juicy!

I dont like pork chops, but I make these all the time. I just but the cheapest pork shoulder chops, and slather them with the onions, lemons, catsup, and bown sugar. I love the flavor, and its always nice and tender.

I really enjoyed this as did my picky 6 year old-it was the first time he calleda dinner I made awesome! It was sweet and the pork was pretty moist, the sauce did get burned at the end though. I would use less brown sugar next time, I think it would still be sweet enough. I didn't have any lemons but it had a ton of flavor anyway. I also seasoned the pork with salt & pepper as suggested in other reviews. I will make this again.

Wow thanks, I never made this in the oven, I always cook it in a frying pan. I tried it in the oven, though it didn't get brown like I was use to, the flavor was still there and probably so much healthier than frying. The only difference in my recipe is that I mix the 1/4 Cup Ketchup and 1/4 cup water (more if you want more sauce). If usually brown the chops first then put the lemon and onion slice, 1 tablespoon of brown sugar and pour the sauce over it. Cover and cook for one hour. I like your recipe though, so much easier and healthier.

I have made this a few times now and i am certain that this is better with BBQ sauce instead of the ketchup and sugar. Way better. Otherwise I follow the recipe exactly.

I originally found this recipe in a Betty Crocker cookbook but later misplaced the book. I was so happy to find the recipe on here. It's a delicious and easy dinner that's a winner in my house!
