INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Season pork chops with salt and pepper.

Heat vegetable oil in a oven safe skillet (I use cast iron) on medium high heat. Sear the pork chops for 3 minutes on each side. Remove and set aside

In the same skillet reduce heat to low and add butter, garlic, brown sugar, red pepper, and whisk until combined, simmer 2-3 minutes. Add pork chops back into the pan and coat with sauce.

Place oven safe skillet in the oven and bake 8-10 minutes or until internal temperature of pork chops reaches 145F

Remove pork chops and let rest 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve!
