Combine the onion through the garlic in small bowl and mix well. Place the pork in a gallon-size zip-top bag, pour the marinade over the chops, seal, and marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.

Prepare your grill. Coat the grill with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Remove the pork from the bag, and save the marinade. Sprinkle salt and pepper on the chops and place on the grill. Grill about 8 minutes per side, or to desired doneness. Baste the pork a few times with small amount of marinade during cooking process. Remove the chops and place in a warm oven.

In the meantime, place the flour in a small saucepan. Gradually add the marinade and the water, whisking until well blended. Bring to a boil over medium heat, and cook 3 minutes or until thickened, stirring constantly. Pour gravy over the pork chops and serve immediately.
