Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Season the pork fillets with the salt and white pepper, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- 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.

- Pour the prepared sauce evenly over the pork fillets, making sure they are well-coated.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 30 minutes, or until the pork is tender and the sauce has thickened and caramelized slightly.
- 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.
