Cheesy Pineapple Pork Chops

STEP 1:

Season the pork with olive oil and seasonings on all sides. To monitor the meat as it cooks, insert probes for the ThermoPro Twin TempSpike 500-ft Wireless Dual-Probe Meat Thermometer into two of your pork chops.

STEP 2:

Heat up an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. When it is hot, add the olive oil and place the pork chops into the pan. Cook until golden brown, or 2 to 3 minutes.

STEP 3:

Flip the chops so that the seared side is facing up. If there is a fattier side of the pork, use kitchen tongs to hold the chops, fat-side-down until it sizzles and browns slightly, or about 30 seconds.

STEP 4:

To finish cooking the lamb, pre-heat the oven to 400°F (204°C). Place the skillet back over medium heat and toss in the onions and pineapple. Cook them for 3 to 4 minutes until they soften a little. When the pineapples are tender, and the onions are soft, turn off the heat.

STEP 5:

When the pork chops are cool enough to handle, spread the cheese and onion mixture.

STEP 6:

Arrange the remaining pineapples and onions in the middle of the skillet, creating a bed for the pork chops. Place the pork down onto the pineapples and onions.

STEP 7:

Bake until your ThermoPro Twin TempSpike thermometer reads 143°F (62°C) when inserted into the thickest part of the chop, 15 to 20 minutes.

STEP 8:

Remove the skillet from the oven and let the pork rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
