Step 1

In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, chili powder, dried oregano, Cajun seasoning, paprika, and garlic powder. Mix well.

Step 2

Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel. Season both sides with salt and pepper, then rub the spice mixture evenly over each chop.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot.

Step 4

Place the pork chops in the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) and have a nice caramelized crust.

Step 5

Remove the pork chops from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
