Italian Pork Chops

This Italian Pork Chops recipe brings the robust flavors of Italy to your dinner table. This simple, yet incredibly flavorful dish is perfect for a weeknight meal and is naturally keto-friendly, offering a delicious and satisfying way to stick to your low-carb goals. Enjoy tender, juicy pork chops infused with classic Italian herbs and spices in just a matter of minutes.

Ingredients

4 boneless pork chops (about 6 oz each)

2 tbsp olive oil

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp dried oregano

1/2 tsp dried basil

1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp black pepper

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Cooking Instructions

    1. Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels. This helps them achieve a beautiful sear.

    2. In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, oregano, basil, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper.

    3. Rub the spice mixture evenly over both sides of the pork chops, ensuring they are well coated.

    4. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

    5. Carefully place the seasoned pork chops in the hot skillet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.

    6. Sear the pork chops for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they develop a golden-brown crust.

    7. Reduce the heat to medium. Cover the skillet and continue cooking for another 5-7 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Use a meat thermometer to ensure accuracy.

    8. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and sprinkle them with grated Parmesan cheese.

    9. Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chop.

    10. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

      Enjoy a healthier, happier life with the simple goodness of the Mediterranean lifestyle.
