Three Ingredients Pork Chops are tender, juicy and ready in under 10 minutes!

Three Ingredients Pork Chops are tender, juicy and ready in under 10 minutes!The other day I didn’t find myself sitting down until 5 PM, after cooking since 7 AM. I still had a dirty kitchen, but my back and feet were killing me, so I gave myself a few minutes to rest. That turned out to be a mistake because I didn’t want to get up. Alas I mustered up enough energy to clean the kitchen and then realized I had no idea what I was going to make for dinner. Gahhh!

Warren usually gets home after 7 PM and generally, it breaks my heart that he has such long hours, but on this day, I was glad.  It meant that I had more time to prepare dinner :)

On days like this is when I turn to easy recipes like my Three Ingredients Pork Chops. It has come to the rescue time and time again. Yes, there are only three ingredients. And, it’s ready in less than 10 minutes!

It sounds weird, right? BUT it totally works! And, no, your chops won’t taste like chocolate (although would that be the worst thing?).

That’s it! Combine the cocoa powder and paprika together. Sprinkle it on the Smithfield All Natural Fresh Pork Bone-In Pork Chops and cook in a covered cast iron skillet for a minute and a half on each side. Bing, bang, boom, dinner is ready in less than 10 minutes!
