Rustic and flavorful, with just salt, pepper, and the right sear.

A bold twist on a classic cut. These pork chops are coated in a Kampot pepper crust that adds a rich, earthy heat and elevates every juicy bite.

🧂 Ingredients

  • 2 thick-cut pork chops
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard

  3. In an oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops for 2–3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  4. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast for 6–8 minutes, depending on thickness, until cooked through.
  5. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with chopped garlic or herbs if desired.
