Notes

  • pork chops: Buy bone in pork chops; not too thin and not too thick about 1-1 1/2 inch thickness  
  • Cookware: All you need is a great skillet with high sides. Here's my favorite that goes stovetop to oven: https://amzn.to/3cqBjZL  
    • seasoning: Season both sides of the pork chops. You eat both sides; season both sides!  
  • The best seasoning in the whole world is this right here: https://amzn.to/3pYpXl4 You need the Tony's Creole for this recipe to be as delicious as mine!  
  • Rice: Here is my basic white rice recipe: (I used jasmine rice)  
    • to a sauce pan add 2 cups of water, 1-2 tbsp. of butter, 1 tsp. of Better Than Bouillon (chicken base), heavy pinch of salt. Then bring it to a boil.  
    • once it's boiling add 1 cup of white rice. I used jasmine but medium or long grain white rice works perfectly too.  
    • cover with a tight fitting lid and lower the heat down to a 2. (on a scale of 1-10)  
    • leave alone for about 2--25 minutes  
    • uncover, fluff up, and let sit for about 5-10 minutes
    • Serve and enjoy!
