  • Season the pork chops generously. A good rule of thumb is to use 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper per pound of pork chops.
  • Sear the pork chops in a hot skillet. This will create a nice crust and help to keep the chops juicy.
  • Reduce the heat and cook the pork chops until they are cooked through. The internal temperature of the pork chops should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
