I rubbed baking powder over my raw pork chops. 45 minutes later, this is what happened

If your chops are 3/4 inch thick,

plan on roughly 2 to 3 minutes per side over medium-high heat, then check the temperature.

 

You can also use an oven finish for thicker chops, especially bone-in chops closer to 1 inch or 1 1/4 inches thick. In that case, sear 2 minutes per side, then transfer to a 400-degree Fahrenheit oven for 4 to 8 minutes, depending on thickness. Pull them when they reach 140 to 142 degrees and let carryover heat do the rest.
