Ingredients

  • 4 center-cut pork loin chops, about 1-inch thick
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste (plus ¼ teaspoon salt for the sauce)

  • Generously sprinkle both sides of the chops with salt and pepper.
  • In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat.
  • Add the chops and sear on one side for about 4 to 5 minutes, until golden brown on the bottoms. Flip the chops over and sear the other sides for another 4 to 5 minutes. (The chops should be firm to the touch, but still have a little give).
  • Transfer the chops to the oven to keep warm while preparing the sauce.
  • Pour all but about 1 teaspoon of oil from the pan and reduce the heat to medium.
  • Add the shallot and garlic and cook until soft, about 2 to 3 minutes.
