Sometimes the best food is really the simplest. There are many ways of preparing pork chops, but the way we have our pork chops most frequently is with a simple marinade and pan frying them. Of course tenderizing the pork chops is of utmost importance to enjoy tender, moist and juicy pork chops.
Sear the chops for 2 – 3 minutes on each side. As soon as the chops are browned, flip them. Repeat the same for the other side.If using cast iron pan, turn off the heat once you have flipped the chops. Cast iron holds heat very well and there will be enough heat to finish cooking the meat. Cover the pan to finish cooking for thicker chops.If using normal pan and the chops are a lot thicker, you can put a cover on the pan and let the chops finish cook for 5 minutes or so on low heat.If you see juice oozing out of the top of the chops, it is definitely done.
