These pork chops are seasoned with a flavorful Cajun-inspired spice blend and cooked to perfection for a quick and delicious meal.
Mix all the spices together in a small bowl to create the seasoning blend.
Mixing the spices thoroughly ensures an even distribution of flavors.
Rub the seasoning blend evenly over both sides of the pork chops.
Pat the pork chops dry before seasoning to help the spices adhere better.
Heat the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot.
Using a combination of butter and oil prevents the butter from burning while adding flavor.
Place the pork chops in the skillet and cook for 4 minutes on each side, or until cooked through.
Avoid overcrowding the skillet to ensure even cooking.
Remove the pork chops from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Resting the meat allows the juices to redistribute, making the chops juicier.
Serve the pork chops with your favorite sides and enjoy!
Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley for a pop of color and added flavor.
