Beginner cooks sometimes have a lot of anxiety about cooking meat. This is just a no-frills, no worries, method of cooking pork chops.
What you will need
2 thick pork chops
Salt
Pepper
Cooking oil
How to cook
1

Give your pork chops a healthy coating of salt and pepper on both sides.
2

Heat some cooking oil in a cast iron skillet. I use olive oil and wait for the pan to just begin to smoke.
3

Carefully lay those guys in the pan.
4

Give them a few minutes to brown. Try to get comfortable with the heat. Use your hands if you can. You can peek if you want.
5

You can kinda see your cooking progress on the sides. Look at that pink shining through. Still raw, right?
6

You wanna brown the sides as well. There's some fat on the edges that'll crisp up nice.
7

Give them a good 10 minutes to relax and carry over. Slice, against the grain of the meat, as always.
8

They should have a little pink in there still, nice and tender.
