Number Of Ingredients 4

4 bone-in pork chops (12 ounces each, 1 1/2 inches thick), preferably pasture-raised
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
Safflower oil, for searing (2 to 4 tablespoons)
1 lemon, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Generously season pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper. Let stand for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Heat enough oil to coat the bottom of a large ovenproof skillet (1 to 2 tablespoons) over medium-high heat. Blot excess moisture off pork chops with paper towels. Sear 2 pork chops on 1 side until crusts are golden, 4 to 5 minutes. Using tongs, brown fatty edges. Flip, and sear for 2 minutes more; transfer to a plate.
  • Wipe skillet clean, add oil to coat (1 to 2 tablespoons), and repeat with remaining 2 pork chops.
  • Add reserved pork chops to skillet, and transfer to oven. Roast each until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reaches 145 degrees, 5 to 7 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes. Squeeze lemon wedges over pork chops.
