Juicy, golden-seared pork chops with a fragrant herb-and-garlic pan sauce — this is the kind of weeknight dinner that feels far more impressive than the effort involved. The chops get a simple rub of sea salt, turmeric, and ginger before hitting a screaming-hot cast iron skillet, building a deep, caramelized crust that locks in all the flavor. Smashed garlic, rosemary, and thyme go into the pan alongside the chops, and the infused coconut oil gets spooned right over the top as they finish cooking — a technique that makes every bite taste like it came from a proper restaurant kitchen. The pan sauce comes together in minutes using bone broth and a splash of apple cider vinegar, lifting all those browned bits into something silky and bright. For anyone navigating a yeast-free lifestyle, this recipe is a natural fit — every ingredient is straightforward and free from the fermented or leavened components that can make sauces and marinades tricky to vet. There's no wine, no soy sauce, no store-bought condiments to second-guess, just clean, whole ingredients doing all the heavy lifting. Finish with a scatter of fresh parsley and spoon that glossy pan sauce generously over the top before serving.

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.
