Ingredients

Scale

4 bone-in pork chops (1-inch thick)

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon dried rosemary

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

1. 1. Season the pork chops with salt and pepper on both sides.

2. 2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

3. 3. Add the pork chops and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

4. 4. In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add the butter.

5. 5. Once the butter is melted, add minced garlic, thyme, and rosemary. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

7. 7. Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the pork chops in the garlic butter mixture for a few hours before cooking. Serve with mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
