Pan Fried Jerk Pork Chops

Ingredients

• Jamaican jerk seasoning (2 tablespoons)
• salt (1 tablespoon)
• ground black pepper (1 tablespoon)
• olive oil (2 tablespoons)
• yellow onion (0.5 medium)
• boneless pork chops (4 (5 ounce))
• limes (2 medium)

Instructions

1. Combine jerk seasoning, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Shake about 1 tablespoon jerk rub into the skillet. Add onions. Cook and stir until soft, about 3 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, sprinkle 1/2 of remaining jerk rub onto one side of each pork chop. Use a knife to poke 4 or 5 holes in each chop and pour 1/2 lime juice over top. Place chops, seasoned-side down, into the hot skillet.
4. Cook until brown, 5 to 7 minutes. While cooking, sprinkle remaining jerk rub onto top side of chops. Poke 4 or 5 holes in each chop with knife. Pour remaining lime juice over top. Flip chops and cook until brown and no longer pink in the center, another 5 to 7 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
