Easy Skillet Pork Chops

02/18/2014 by Adrianne Surian 2 Comments

So we can’t really get to the grill right now, it’s still buried under a couple feet of snow.  So we are missing our steaks and pork chops!  Fortunately, I’ve got a backup way of skillet-baking pork chops in the oven.  Oven-baked pork chops are really simple and as long as you have a seasoned cast iron skillet, you can have them on the table in under a half hour.

I always think of my sister when I make these, because she is the one who taught me how to oven-bake them in the skillet like this.  I didn’t get too specific on the seasoning recipe below, because everyone will have their own taste.  We just use minced onion and salt and pepper, but do it however you like!

You’ll sear them for a minute on the stove top first, and finish up the baking in the oven.  Just read on, it’s simple!

Ingredients
  • 4 Boneless Thick-Cut Pork Loin Chops
  • Seasoning to taste. I like 2 tsp. minced onion and salt and pepper.
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 500 degrees and turn on your oven vent. (Sometimes oven-baking can get a little smoky and you don't want to set off the smoke detectors!)
  2. Spray cast-iron skillet with cooking spray and heat it on the stove top on high.
  3. Season your chops however you like. Sear them for 30 seconds per side.
  4. Put the entire skillet into the preheated oven. Oven bake for about 16 minutes, turning your chops every 4 minutes. (For thinner chops, 13-14 minutes will be sufficient, but you still want to turn them frequently so they char evenly.)
  5. Serve hot!

    I am trying this. Pork chops are the one dish I can’t ever seem to get right. Maybe this recipe will help to break that streak of dry-pork chop sadness we’ve had.

Hello, and welcome! I'm Adrianne, an artist, author, designer, and blogger in mid Michigan. I work from home, chase my two kids, and this once-city-girl is learning how to care for chickens and adjusting to life out in the country. I have a compulsion for daily creativity... sometimes it's jewelry-making, paper crafting, metal stamping, mixing and baking, or giving new life to recycled items. But with 2 young kids, time is short! My goal here at Happy Hour Projects is to share projects and tips that you can do in an hour or less. The ideas you find here are designed to add a little creativity in your day, no matter how much (or how little) time you have!
