Oven Baked Bone-In Pork Chops

Quick, easy, and delicious. The recipe is for 4, but I halved it because there's only 2 of us eating. Great flavor. Best to rely on a meat thermometer instead of cooking time because pork can be tough and dry if overcooked.

Ingredient

Food ration :

4 servings

Cooking time :

20-25 minutes

2 T.

Olive oil

bone-in pork loin chops

1 tsp.

Onion powder

1 tsp.

Paprika

1/2 tsp.

Oregano

1/2 tsp.

Thyme

8 T.

Butter, melted

4 cloves

garlic, finely minced

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe 12-inch skillet (preferably cast iron skillet) set over medium-high heat.

* Step 2

Pat dry the pork chops with paper towels. Season the chops with salt, pepper, onion powder, paprika, oregano, and thyme. Sear for about 3 minutes per side or until browned. Don't crowd the skillet; if necessary, sear in 2 batches.

* Step 3

Combine the melted butter and garlic in a bowl. Remove the skillet from heat and pour the garlic butter sauce over the pork chops.

* Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven for about 12 to 15 minutes, or until cooked through, and internal temperature registers at 145°F. Cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the chops, so rely on the internal temperature. Baste with the butter sauce halfway through cooking.

* Step 5

Remove from oven and transfer the chops to a serving plate; cover with foil and let rest for 5 minutes. Spoon butter sauce over the pork chops, garnish with chives, and serve.
