How to Make Easy Spiced Pork Chops
Grab a large plastic sealable bag (and preferably place it in a baggy stand – you DO have one of those, don't you?!?) and add olive oil, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, onion powder, ground cumin, garlic paste and salt and pepper. Squish it around to mix everything together.
Add the boneless pork chops and massage the marinade sauce around the meat. I did this while my grill pan was heating up – so the meat was in the spice mix for only about five minutes!
Season the chops with salt and pepper on both sides, and discard the sauce. Cook the chops until cooked through, about 4-5 minutes on each side for chops with an average thickness.
Serve with salad, horseradish coleslaw, or both!

Can i use a cast iron?
Georgina says
Absolutely!
KATHY says
Can this be frozen in seal a meal for future use?
Georgina says
Sorry, I’m not familiar with seal a meal. I wonder if anyone else has tried it? Georgina
Kathy says
Sorry, it’s a Foodsaver. It seals airtight for the freezer. So the question would be does the marinated meat freeze well?
Gini says
Yes, it does!
Dan Money says
Hi,
How hot should the frying pan be preheated to?
D$
Georgina says
Everyone’s burners (and pans) are a little different, but mine was at a medium-high heat. I hope that helps!

Quick question, was just looking for a low carb recipe for big package of bone in pork chops I bought on sale, any reason why this wouldn’t work on bone in? I was intending to cook in cast iron skillet.
Georgina says
I think a bone-in chop would work just as well!
Melinda Carter says
I cooked mine in a cast iron skillet. My family loved them. I also doubled the recipe
ELAINE SMITH says
As this recipe is listed in a “Freezer Meal” post, where are the directions for using it as such? Does one cook before or afterwards?
Georgina says
Could you tell me where you saw the freezer meal post? It isn’t one that I have written, and haven’t written the recipe that way. So it looks like someone else has linked to me but incorrectly.
