How to Make 3 Spice Fried Pork Chops

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat.
  2. Season each pork chop generously with 1 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  3. Carefully place pork chops in the hot oil. Cover the pan with a lid or aluminum foil and cook for 10 minutes, or until golden brown.
  4. Flip the pork chops and cook for another 10 minutes, uncovered, until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 145°F).
  5. Remove pork chops from the pan and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  6. Serve immediately. For an American-style dinner, pair with a fresh salad and roasted vegetables. For a Latin-inspired meal, serve with delicious fried beans, rice, or a vibrant stir-fry of cabbage, egg, and avocado.
