Equipment

Ingredients 1x2x3x
- ▢2 Bone in thick pork chops about 1 inch thick
- ▢1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ▢1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- ▢2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Season pork chops with salt and pepper.
- Heat vegetable oil in a oven-safe skillet (I use) on medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops for 3 minutes on each side. Remove to a plate and set aside.
- In the same skillet reduce heat to low and add butter, garlic, brown sugar, red pepper, and whisk until combined, simmer 2-3 minutes. Add pork chops back into the pan and coat with sauce.
- Place oven safe skillet in the oven and bake 8-10 minutes or until internal temperature of pork chops reaches 145F using a digital meat thermometer.
- Remove pork chops and let rest 5 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste and garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve!
