¼ cup brown sugar
½ tsp cayenne pepper
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp paprika
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
4 thickcut
boneless pork chops
2 Tbsp olive oil

1. Preheat the oven to 350ºF. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
2. Remove the pork chops from their package and rub the seasoning mixture over
all sides of each chop. The moisture from the meat will help the seasoning to
adhere to the surface.
3. Heat olive oil in a large, ovensafe skillet over a medium flame. When the oil
begins to shimmer, add the pork chops. Cook the chops for about 5 minutes on
each side, until nicely browned.
4. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven for another 5-10 minutes to finish
cooking. Test the chops with a meat thermometer to make sure the internal
temperature has reached 165ºF. Cook longer if needed.
5. To serve your Glazed Pork Chops, dredge the chops through the sticky sweet
pan glaze just before serving.
