Ingredients
- 2 bone-in pork chops (1 inch thick)
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Instructions
1. Pat the pork chops dry and generously season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, thyme, and brown sugar.
2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Sear the pork chops for 3-4 minutes per side until they develop a golden-brown crust.
3. Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter to the skillet. Baste the chops with the melted butter for 1-2 minutes.
4. Deglaze the pan with apple cider vinegar. Let it simmer for a minute, spooning the pan juices over the pork chops.
5. Remove the chops from heat and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
Choose high-quality, bone-in pork chops for moisture and flavor.
Avoid overcrowding the pan during searing for a proper crust.
Resting the chops before serving allows juices to redistribute.
