Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces pork steaks
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1.5 cups chicken broth
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Pat the pork steaks dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.
In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, thyme, oregano, sea salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Rub each pork steak with olive oil, then evenly coat them with the spice mixture on both sides.
Heat a large oven-safe skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat.
Sear the pork steaks for 2-3 minutes on each side, until they are golden brown. This helps to lock in the flavors.
Remove the skillet from heat, and pour the chicken broth around the steaks (not directly on top of them to keep the spices intact).
Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C) and the meat is tender.
Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and allow the pork to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the savory baked pork steaks with your favorite Whole30 sides such as roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
