INGREDIENTS:
  • 1 Tbsp salt
  • 3/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp tumeric
  • 1 tsp black pepper, ground
  • 3/4 tsp oregano

DIRECTIONS:

Mix all dry ingredients together. Store in an airtight container.  

Preheat the oven to 450°.

Pat the pork chops dry and sprinkle ½ tsp of the seasoning mixture on each pork chop, making sure to season both sides.

In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, warm 2 tsp of canola or avocado oil.

Add the pork chops to the skillet and press them to ensure full contact. Sear for 2-4 minutes per side.

Transfer the pork chops to a baking sheet and bake for 5-10 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork chop reaches 145°.

Let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes before cutting.
