Basted Pork Chops

Basted Pork Chop

Serves 4

4 bonelss pork chops, 8oz-12oz

Salt and pepper to taste

6 TBSP unsalted butter

Sprig of thyme

Sprig of rosemary

2 garlic cloves, smashed

• Season pork chops with salt and pepper

• Preheat a pan over medium-high.  Drizzle the pan with a small amount of oil, like vegetable oil.

• Once the pan is hot, add 2 pork chops to the pan at a time so not to overcrowd the pan.  Cook until it  is golden brown on one side.  Flip the pork and add butter, thyme, rosemary and garlic.  (For every 2 chops in the pan add 3 TBSP of butter.)

• Tilt the pan, and using a large tablespoon, baste the chop with the melted butter frequently, being sure to baste the entire chop and keep the pork over the heat.

• Cook pork until the internal temperature is 145°F, continuing to baste as it cooks.

• Remove from heat and allow to rest for 3-5 minutes.
