1/4 tsp salt (1.5g)

1 tbsp apple cider vinegar (15 ml)

1 tbsp Dijon mustard (15 ml)

Cooking Instructions

    1. In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, black pepper, salt, apple cider vinegar, and Dijon mustard. This creates thespicy marinadethat will infuse the pork chops with flavor.

    2. Place the pork chops in a resealable bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the pork chops, ensuring they are evenly coated.

    3. Marinate the pork chops in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours. The longer themarinating process, the more flavorful the pork chops will become.

    4. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). While the oven is preheating, remove the pork chops from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes. This helps them cook more evenly.

    5. Heat an oven-safe skillet (cast iron is ideal) over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side, until browned. This searing locks in the juices and adds adelicious crust.

    6. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork chops reaches 145°F (63°C). Use a meat thermometer to ensure accurate doneness.

    7. Remove the skillet from the oven and let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting intender and succulent pork chops.
