Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Pork Chops
Remove the pork chops from the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps ensure even cooking.
- 2
Season the Chops
In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Rub both sides of each pork chop with the olive oil, then evenly coat them with the spice mixture.
Cooking
- 3
Sear the Pork Chops
Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned pork chops to the skillet. Sear the chops for about 4-5 minutes on each side until a nice golden-brown crust forms.

Add Aromatics
If using, add the fresh rosemary to the skillet during the last minute of cooking to infuse flavor into the pork chops.
- 5
Check for Doneness
Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the pork chops. They should reach at least 145°F (63°C) for safe consumption. If they are not done, reduce the heat to medium and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, checking frequently.
