Ingredients
  

  • 4 pork chops 1 inch thick, about 8 oz each, bone-in unless boneless is specified
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons ranch seasoning mix
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Black pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix Parmesan cheese, ranch seasoning, and minced garlic.
  3. Season the chops with pepper; ranch seasoning supplies salt.
  4. Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
  5. Sear pork chops for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  6. Sprinkle the garlic Parmesan mixture over the pork chops.
  7. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.
  8. Bake for about 6-12 minutes, checking early, until the thickest part reaches 145°F.
  9. Before removing the chops from heat, check the thickest part away from bone reaches 145°F with an instant-read thermometer; continue cooking gently if needed. Cooking times are estimates.
  10. Let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes before serving.
