Because it’s such a lean source of protein, with less marbling than a shoulder cut, pork chops cook pretty quickly. In fact, they’re ready so quickly that it’s super easy to overcook them ...
No matter how you serve these pork chops, just make sure to let the meat come to room temperature before searing to help ensure even cooking. Sprinkle pork chops evenly with salt, pepper, and fennel.
but pork chops, as we all probably know, do have a high likelihood of drying out, so we’re gonna try to mitigate that as much as possible by cooking them as evenly as possible (no spot left behind).
