- 4 thick-cut boneless pork loin chops about 1-inch thick
- 2 tbs olive oil
For the Rub:
- 1 tbs chipotle chili powder
- 1/4 tsp oregano
- 1/4 tsp ground coriander
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
Mix all rub ingredients in a small bowl.
Sprinkle each side of the chops with the rub then rub in to distribute well.
Heat a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat; add the oil—the oil will smoke. (I use cast iron)
Add chops to the hot skillet and brown very well on each side, about 8 minutes each side.
This should cook the chops completely, but test with a meat thermometer to be sure. They should be 160 degrees internal temp. If not, they can be finished off in a 350 degree F oven for 10 minutes.
