Ingredients

  • 2 (tablespoon) olive oil
  • 4 (5-6 ounce) pork loin chops, 3/4 inch thick
  • 1/2 (cup) lemon juice
  • 3 (clove) garlic, peeled and minced
  • 1/2 (tablespoon) paprika
  • 1 (teaspoon) dried thyme
  • 1/2 (teaspoon) cayenne pepper

Directions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Brown pork chops about 5 minutes per side.
  2. Mix lemon juice, garlic, paprika, thyme, and cayenne pepper into the skillet. Cover, and simmer 20 minutes, cooking the chops to an internal temperature of 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
  3. Remove pork chops from the skillet, and set aside. Over high heat, reduce the remaining liquid for about 5 minutes. Return pork chops to the skillet briefly, coating them on both sides with the reduced mixture.

    @Anonymous, these should be lightly salted (as should everything! - food must be seasoned!) and adding the butter is a great idea to make it richer and creamy. Thanks for sharing.
