Recipe: Home Restaurant Spiced Pork Chops and Home Spice Mix

Main Dishes - Pork, Ham
SPICED PORK CHOPS

"A customer at Home once quipped that if you looked up the word "indulgence" in the dictionary, the definition would be Home's Spiced Pork Chops."

4 (12- to 14-ounce) double-thick pork chops (1 1/2 inches thick)*
1/2 cup home spice mix (recipe follows)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup olive oil

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Place pork chops in wide shallow bowl; generously coat them on all sides with spice mix. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Heat olive oil in a 10-inch cast-iron ovenproof or stainless-steel skillet over medium heat. Add pork chops; brown until spices turn golden brown, about 1 minute per side. Carefully pour off oil.

Place skillet in oven; bake chops until cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes. Every 8 to 10 minutes, remove skillet from oven, carefully pour off accumulated fat and turn chops over.

When chops are cooked, transfer to a large plate and let stand for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

*The most tender and succulent pork chops are center-cut rib and loin chops. Because they have a portion of tenderloin, you can think of them as the pig's version of T-bone or porterhouse steak.

HOME SPICE MIX
Makes about 3/4 cup

1/3 cup cumin seeds
1/3 cup coriander seeds
1/3 cup yellow mustard seeds

Heat a skillet over medium heat until hot. Add cumin seeds; toss occasionally until lightly toasted, about 1 minute. Transfer to a plate to let cool. Repeat with coriander seeds and then mustard seeds.

When spices are cool, coarsely grind them together in a coffee grinder reserved for spices or in a mortar with a pestle.

Makes 4 servings
