Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 bone-in pork chops
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 teaspoons cracked black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 0.25 cup chicken stock
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and season them generously on both sides with kosher salt, cracked black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is shimmering, carefully place the pork chops in the skillet. Sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Add the butter, fresh rosemary, and minced garlic to the skillet. Spoon the melted butter over the pork chops as they cook.
Pour in the chicken stock to deglaze the skillet and scrape up any browned bits on the bottom. Let it simmer for 1-2 minutes.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 10-12 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork chops reaches 145°F (63°C).
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the pork chops warm with the pan sauce drizzled on top.
