Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare the Pork Fillets:
- Season the pork fillets with the salt and white pepper, ensuring they are evenly coated.
3. Make the Sauce:
- In a medium bowl, combine the brown sugar, ketchup, water, and finely chopped onion. Stir well until the brown sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is well integrated.
4. Assemble in Baking Dish:

5. Bake:
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
6. Uncover and Continue Baking:

7. Serve:
- Remove the pork fillets from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve the pork chops hot, with the sweet and savory sauce spooned over the top.

Tips:

- Choose quality pork fillets to ensure tenderness and flavor.

- If you prefer a thicker sauce, reduce the amount of water or allow it to simmer and reduce for a few minutes before baking.

- Marinate the pork chops with the salt, pepper, and a bit of the sauce mixture for at least 30 minutes for a more intense flavor.

- To add a depth of flavor, consider browning the pork chops in a skillet before transferring them to the oven.

- Serve the pork chops with mashed potatoes, rice, or a fresh salad to complete the meal.
