1

Make cuts on the pork chops to prevent them from puffing up while cooking.

2

Season the pork chops with smoked paprika, garlic salt, and black pepper on both sides.

3

Cook the pork chops on both sides until browned; they cook quickly as they are pre-cooked.

4

While the pork chops are cooking, chop the vegetables (onion and chili).

5

Add a drizzle of olive oil to the pan to help brown the pork chops better.

6

Once the pork chops are browned, remove them from the pan and place them on a plate.

7

In the same pan, add a drizzle of olive oil and add the chopped vegetables.

8

Cover the pan and let the vegetables cook for about 8 to 10 minutes until they release their juices.

9

After the vegetables are cooked, return the pork chops to the pan and cover them, cooking on low heat for another 8 minutes to absorb the flavors.
