Season the pork chops with the onion soup mix, ranch seasoning mix, garlic powder, and black pepper. Rub the spices evenly on both sides of the pork chops.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown. Transfer the seared pork chops to a plate and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the chicken broth and scrape the bottom of the pan to deglaze it. This will release all the flavorful bits stuck to the pan.
Reduce the heat to medium and stir in the heavy cream. Let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Gradually stir the slurry into the skillet sauce to thicken it.
Return the seared pork chops to the skillet, covering them with the sauce. Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the pork chops are fully cooked and reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Serve the pork chops hot, drizzled with the creamy onion ranch sauce. Pair with mashed potatoes, rice, or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
