When time is short

Ingredients

1 teaspoon Dried parsley flakes

1 teaspoon Dried marjoram

1 teaspoon Rubbed sage

1/8 teaspoon Garlic powder

1/8 teaspoon Salt

1/8 teaspoon Pepper

2 Bone-in pork loin chops (3/4 in thick and 6 ounces each)

1-1/2 teaspoons Olive oil, divided

1/4 cup Reduced-sodium chicken broth

2 tablespoons Sherry or additional reduced-sodium chicken broth

Preparation

In a small bowl, combine the parsley, marjoram, sage, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Brush both sides of pork chops with 1 teaspoon oil; rub with herb mixture.

In a large nonstick skillet coated with nonstick cooking spray, cook chops in remaining oil over medium heat for 3-4 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Remove and keep warm. Add broth and sherry or additional broth to skillet, stirring to loosen browned bits. Bring to a boil.

Return chops to the pan. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 4-5 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 160 degrees. Serve chops with pan juices.
