Tips:
- To ensure the pork chops are cooked evenly and without drying out, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The pork chops are done when they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
- For a crispier crust on the pork chops, sear them over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes per side before reducing the heat to medium-low and continuing to cook until done.
- If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check the doneness of the pork chops by cutting into one of them. The pork chops are done when the juices run clear and there is no pink in the center.
- Serve the pork chops immediately with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
- For a more flavorful dish, marinate the pork chops in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, herbs, and spices for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
- If you're using boneless pork chops, be sure to pound them to an even thickness before cooking to ensure even cooking.
