Instructions

  1. Pre-heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels then season generously on both sides with salt and pepper.
  3. Once the pan is hot, pour in the olive oil then add the pork chops, pressing down with a spatula to ensure the full chop is making contact with the hot pan.
  4. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, depending on thickness, until golden brown.
  5. Add the butter, garlic and thyme to the pan and baste the pork chops for a minute or two until done to your preference.
  6. Remove from the pan, pour over the butter and aromatics and allow to rest for 5 minutes then serve.
