Ingredients
4 bone-in pork loin chops, 1/2-inch thick
¼ tsp salt
¾ tsp jerk seasoning
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 can canned pineapple chunks in juice
3 scallions, sliced
1 tsp salt
Directions
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, combine 1/4 teaspoon salt and 3/4 teaspoon jerk seasoning. Rub the seasoning mixture evenly over both sides of all four chops.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 1 minute.
Place the seasoned pork chops in the hot skillet and cook for 5 to 6 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 145°F. Transfer the cooked chops to a serving plate and tent with foil to keep warm.
In the same skillet, add the canned pineapple chunks with their juice. Stir gently and heat through for 1 to 2 minutes.
Taste the pineapple mixture and add the 1 teaspoon of salt as needed. Spoon the warm pineapple and its juices over the pork chops.
Garnish with sliced scallions and serve immediately.
