Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

  2. In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and pepper.

  3. Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel, then season both sides generously with the spice mixture, rubbing it in for maximum flavor.

  4. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the pork chops without overcrowding the pan. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until nicely browned.

  5. Transfer the seared pork chops to the prepared baking sheet and place them in the preheated oven. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) for medium doneness.

  6. Remove the pork chops from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.

  7. Serve the pork chops hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired. Pair with side dishes like roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a crisp salad.
