- In a large cast-iron skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. When it’s hot, cook the pork chops for about 2 minutes per side. Turn off the heat.
- Brush both sides of pork chops with spice blend. Transfer the skillet to the oven, cook for 6-10 minutes or longer depending on the thickness, until the internal temperature reaches 140°F.
