Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 1 teaspoon paprika

  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin

  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper

  • ½ teaspoon rubbed dried sage leaves

  • ½ teaspoon garlic salt

  • 1 ½ teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil

  • 4 center cut pork chops

Directions

  1. Mix paprika, cumin, black pepper, cayenne pepper, sage, and garlic salt on a plate. Liberally coat each pork chop with the spice mixture.

  2. Heat olive oil and several pumps of non-stick, butter-flavored spray in a large skillet over high heat. Place pork chops in the skillet, reducing heat to medium. Cook until the pork is no longer pink in the center, 8 to 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
