How to Make Cajun Pork Chops

  1. Preheat your grill to medium heat (approximately 350°F).
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning, 1 tablespoon paprika, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 2 tablespoons olive oil.
  3. Generously rub the spice mixture all over both sides of the pork chops, ensuring they're fully coated.
  4. Place the pork chops on the preheated grill. Grill for 5-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) on a meat thermometer. Adjust grilling time based on the thickness of your chops.
  5. Remove from grill and let rest for 2-3 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
