These pan-seared pork chops are the kind of weeknight dinner that feels far more impressive than the effort involved. A simple rub of turmeric and ginger gives the meat a warm, aromatic crust before it hits a screaming-hot cast iron skillet, where it develops a deep golden sear that locks in all the juices. Smashed garlic, fresh rosemary, and thyme go into the pan alongside the chops, and the infused coconut oil gets spooned over the top as they finish cooking — a technique that layers flavor into every bite. The quick pan sauce, built from bone broth and a splash of apple cider vinegar, picks up all those caramelized bits from the bottom of the skillet and reduces into something glossy and rich. Every ingredient here is naturally free from seeds and seed-derived oils, so there's no need to scrutinize labels or swap anything out — the recipe just works as written. Finishing with a scatter of fresh parsley adds a bright pop of color and freshness that pulls the whole plate together. This one is genuinely worth adding to your regular rotation.

Pat the pork chops completely dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, combine the salt, turmeric, and ginger. Rub the mixture evenly over both sides of each chop.
Heat the coconut oil in a 12-inch cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil shimmers and a drop of water flicked in sizzles immediately.
