1
Prepare the Pork Chops
Pat the bone-in pork chops dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This helps in achieving a nice sear.
2
Season the Chops
Rub the olive oil evenly over the pork chops. Then, sprinkle garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and fresh rosemary on both sides, ensuring they are well coated.
3
Heat the Pan
In a large skillet, heat over medium-high heat. Allow it to become hot enough that a drop of water sizzles on contact.
4
Sear the Pork Chops
Place the pork chops in the hot skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until they have a nice golden brown crust.
5
Cook Through
Reduce heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and continue cooking for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
6
Rest the Chops
Remove the pork chops from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. This helps the juices redistribute.
