Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a small bowl, whisk together the kosher salt, minced garlic, dried sage, and ginger paste until well combined. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Place the pork chops in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the seasoning mixture over the chops, ensuring they are evenly coated. (3 minutes)

03

Step

Seal the bag or cover the dish and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to fully penetrate the pork. (2 hours)

04

Step

When ready to cook, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Alternatively, preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates. (5 minutes)

05

Step

Remove the pork chops from the marinade, shaking off any excess. Discard the remaining marinade. (1 minute)

06

Step

Carefully place the chops in the hot skillet or on the preheated grill. Cook for approximately 7 minutes on each side, or until the pork is no longer pink in the center and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 145°F (63°C). (14 minutes)

07

Step

Remove the pork chops from the heat and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chop. (5 minutes)

For optimal flavor, marinate the pork chops overnight.
If grilling, ensure the grill grates are clean and well-oiled to prevent sticking.
Resting the pork chops after cooking is crucial for maximum juiciness.
Serve with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
