I made these for my husband and I and we both loved them. They melted in our mouths!! The only seasoning I used was a little bit of sea salt and a sprinkle of onion powder because he isn't much for spices and still they were delicious. I'm making them again tonight. Thank you for sharing! - 11/17/08

I used boneless pork chops, about 1/2 inch thick and black pepper and Montreal steak seasoning for the spices. After searing both sides in an iron skillet, I baked them in oven for 7 minutes. I made a wine sauce by deglazing the pan with a little wine, smart balance, and fat-free half and half. Yum! - 1/12/10

This is a classic restaurant method for cooking meats & nearly foolproof. I do one 2" bone-in chop, +/- 16oz (serves 2 w/leftovers for 2 lunches), 2t peanut oil (oo burns too easily), cracked black pepper, kosher/sea salt & granulated garlic & onion. It's always tender & our favorite pork dish. - 8/30/11

I do these on the grill, several servings at a time & put the extras in individual freezer bags. Never know when you might forget to get a protein for a meal, and these are ready to go-put in the lunch box, and by noon, ready to micrwave for a few minutes to re-heat (better yet into a toaster oven) - 3/2/09
