Notes
- The thin boneless pork chops I had weighed 3 oz/ 85 g and were ⅓ inch/ almost 1 cm thick. The safe internal temperature (145°F/63°C) was reached after 5 minutes of cooking. If your chops are thicker, increase the cooking time slightly, and check regularly with a meat thermometer to avoid overcooking.
- Spices: You can basically use any spices, spice blend, or dry rub you like, either homemade or store-bought.
