Ingredients

▢ 4 pork chops
▢ ½ teaspoon salt
▢ 2 tablespoon pork chop seasoning
▢ 2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

Pat the 4 pork chops dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Place the pork chops in a bowl and add ½ teaspoon salt, 2 tablespoons pork chop seasoning, and 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil.
Rub the spice mixture over all sides and let the pork chops marinate for 30 minutes.
Place the seasoned pork chops on a baking tray.
Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F / 190°C (340°F convection / 170°C fan) for about 17 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Broil for 3–4 minutes at the end for a golden crust.
Remove the baked pork loin chops from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve hot and enjoy.

Notes

Pat Them Dry First: I always blot the pork chops well with paper towels because it helps the seasoning stick better and gives the outside a better golden crust.

Let the Seasoning Sit: I like giving the pork chops at least 30 minutes to marinate so the seasoning has time to fully coat the meat with flavor.

Use a Meat Thermometer: I always check for 145°F / 63°C so the pork stays tender without drying out.

Broil at the End: Those final few minutes under the broiler help create that deeper golden color and slightly crisp edge that makes the chops taste even better.
