If brining the pork chops: Measure the 4 tablespoons of table salt into a shallow dish big enough to fit the chops in a single layer. Add boiling water.

1

Take the pork chops out of the fridge. If you were brining them, take them out of the liquid and rinse them off. Discard the liquid.

2

Let chops rest at room temperature for 5 minutes before preheating your oven to 400°F.

3

While the oven preheats, rub the chops with the olive oil on both sides. Sprinkle on both sides with the two teaspoons of salt and the black pepper.

4

Over high heat, warm a large oven-safe skillet that can fit the 4 chops without crowding them. When the oven is finished preheating, put the pork chops into the hot pan on the stove.
