Instructions
- Remove pork from packaging and pat dry.
- Add to bag or bowl.
- In a small bowl, combine ranch seasoning, lemon juice, olive oil, and pepper, mix.
- Cover pork chops in 1/2 marinade mix. Set 1/2 aside for cooking.
- Marinate at least 30 minutes, up to overnight. Refrigerate in airtight container if marinating longer than 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Add heavy, ovenproof skillet to oven. I use cast iron - be sure pan is specifically designed to be safe in oven and that you have a good thick potholder.
- If refrigerated overnight, remove pork from fridge and let come to room temperature while oven and pan preheat.
- When oven has reached 400 degrees and pan is scorching hot, carefully add pork chops to skillet. I use long handled tongs to reduce risk of burning my hands or arms in the super hot pan and oven!
- Bake for four minutes.
- Flip pork chops and spoon the reserved ranch sauce on both sides of pork chops.
- Bake another four minutes.
- Check your pork's internal temperature. When pork reaches 145 (about 8 minutes, but remember, pork cooking times can vary wildly based on oven, thickness of pork, altitude, etc.) it is ready to come out of oven.
- Rest pork for at least 3 minutes after baking before cutting and serving.
- Garnish with fresh diced chives if desired.
- Enjoy!
