Pan Seared Pork Chops (Easy Recipe)

• portions: 4 servings
• temps actif: 5 minutes
• temps total: 11 minutes

Ingrédients

1 tsp Sea salt

1 tsp Garlic powder

1 tsp Smoked Paprika

1 tsp Dried thyme

1 tsp Dried oregano

1/2 tsp Black pepper

1/4 tsp Cayenne pepper

4 8-oz Pork chops (boneless or bone-in; preferably at room temperature)

2 tbsp Olive oil

Instructions

In a small bowl of jar, mix together the salt, garlic powder, smoked paprika, dried thyme, dried oregano, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.

Use a paper towel to pat the pork chops dry. Season both sides with the seasoning mixture, about 1/2 tablespoon per pork chop.

Heat the olive oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat, until shimmering. Add the pork chops in a single layer. Sear for 3-5 minutes per side, without moving except to flip, until the internal temperature reaches 140-143 degrees F (60 degrees C). Use a meat thermometer for best results, but here is a guideline for pork chop searing times:* 1" thick boneless pork chops: 4-5 minutes per side* 1/2" thick boneless pork chops: 2-3 minutes per side* 1" thick bone-in pork chops: 4-6 minutes per side* 1/2" thick bone-in pork chops: 2-4 minutes per side

Transfer the pan seared pork chops to a plate. Rest for 5 minutes before serving (internal temperature should rise to 145 degrees F (63 degrees C) during resting).
