Pat dry each chop with paper towels and rub each with olive oil and dredge in the coating.

Heat a large (oven safe) skillet over high heat.

Pour olive oil to coat. Add pork chops to the pan and cook for 3- 4 minutes, until golden brown on one side.

Chops will get browned, but You can also finish them off under the broiler for a minute or two to get them extra browned on top.

Serve immediately with a veggie like these delicious fresh broccoli that I steamed.
