Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pork chops (bone-in or boneless)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Step 2
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil.
Step 3
Once the oil is hot, place the pork chops in the skillet in a single layer. Cook undisturbed for 4-5 minutes, allowing them to develop a golden-brown crust.
Step 4
Flip the pork chops and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until they are nearly cooked through (the internal temperature should reach 145°F or 63°C).
Step 5
Reduce the heat to medium, push the pork chops to one side of the skillet, and add the butter to the skillet.
Step 6
Once the butter has melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
Step 7
Spoon the garlic butter over the pork chops to coat them evenly. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, ensuring the pork is fully cooked and the flavors are well blended.
Step 8
Remove the skillet from heat and let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes off the heat.
Step 9
Garnish with chopped parsley (if using) and serve warm with your preferred side dishes.
