Recipe Tips for Making Pork Chops

• The pork chops should not be thicker than 1/2″ or they will not cook through. If the pork is thicker, you can use a meat mallet to beat the pork until about 1/2″ in thickness.
• This recipe can be made using bone-in or boneless pork chops.
• If boneless, the searing time per side maybe a little less. Per USDA guidelines, pork should be cooked to an internal temperature of minimum 145°F.
• Family Foodie Tip: Cooking them too long will dry them out, so be careful not to overcook your pork chops. A meat thermometer always helps when cooking any meat.
