Ingredients
  

For the Pork Chops

  • 1 tablespoon Italian Seasoning Can be swapped with dried oregano, basil, and thyme

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by patting the bone-in pork rib chops dry with paper towels; this is crucial for achieving that perfect sear.
  2. In a small bowl, combine Italian seasoning and salt to create a flavorful rub. Evenly distribute this mixture over both sides of the pork chops.
  3. Place a large skillet over medium-high heat and add salted butter. Allow the butter to melt and become foamy.
  4. Carefully add the seasoned pork chops to the skillet, turning the heat down to medium. Cook for about 8 to 10 minutes, flipping them halfway through.
  5. Once cooked, transfer the juicy pork chops to a plate and allow them to rest for 5 minutes.
