Perfect Oven-Baked Pork Chops

Boneless pork chops, 3/4" thick
Olive oil
Salt, pepper, desired seasonings

Preheat oven to 350.

Sprinkle both sides of chops with salt, pepper, and seasonings.

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet on med-high heat, about 3 minutes on the first side, turn and brown the other side for 1 minute, then turn off the heat and pop the pan into the oven. (a wire splatter screen over the top of the pan will save some mess in your oven).

Check the chops after about 10 minutes--cook meat to 170, then remove from oven & allow the meat to rest for a few minutes.
