Restaurant Style Pan Seared Porterhouse Pork Chops with Rosemary ### Ingredients

2 Porterhouse pork chops (1-inch thick)
Salt and black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
Zest of 1 lemon

Instructions

Start by taking the pork chops out of the refrigerator and letting them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes. This helps them cook evenly.
Season both sides of the pork chops generously with salt and black pepper.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the pork chops to the skillet.
Sear the pork chops for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they develop a beautiful golden crust.
Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, and lemon zest to the skillet. Spoon the melted butter over the pork chops as they cook.
Continue to cook the chops for another 4-5 minutes, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Once cooked, remove the pork chops from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute and keeps the meat juicy.
Serve the pork chops hot, drizzled with the garlic and herb butter from the skillet, and enjoy!

This recipe for Restaurant Style Pan Seared Porterhouse Pork Chops with Rosemary is sure to impress anyone at your table. The combination of aromatic herbs and the richness of the pork makes this dish a true winner. Bon appétit!
