Seared Pork Chops with Sweet BBQ Sauce
Ingredients
  • 1 pound (1/2-inch thick) pork chops
  • kosher salt to taste
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup barbeque sauce
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 limes, juiced
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parsley, or to taste
Instructions
1
Prepare the pork chops for cooking by sprinkling both sides generously with salt and pepper.
2
Next, heat a substantial amount of olive oil in a large skillet over a moderate temperature setting.
3
Carefully place the pork chops in a single layer within the skillet; cook until they develop a golden appearance, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
4
Concurrently, combine the barbecue sauce, brown sugar, lime juice, and garlic powder in a bowl using a whisking motion; pour the sauce over the seared pork chops and bring to a rolling boil.
5
Subsequently, decrease the heat to a medium level, cover the skillet with a lid, and allow the pork chops to cook through until they reach full doneness, 4 to 5 minutes.
6
Finally, garnish the cooked pork chops with a sprinkle of parsley.
