Chili Roasted Pork Loin Chops - 0.9g Carbs, 0.5g Fiber

This southwestern dish will satisfy your cravings for a little bit of spice and a lot of flavor.
Serves: 4

4 pork loin chops
2 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp ground cumin
A generous pinch of cinnamon
Olive oil spray
Grated sea salt

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.

In a small bowl mix the chili powder, cumin and cinnamon. Rub the mixture on top of your chops. Heat a cast iron pan. Lightly spray with olive oil and put the chops in plain side down.

Sear on medium high for 3 minutes. This gives that side a good crust.

Turn the chops over and put them in the oven. (If you are not using cast iron you'll have to transfer the chops into an ovenproof container). Roast the chops at 400 degrees for 20 minutes or until they measure 160 degrees with a meat thermometer. The rub will have penetrated the meat and you'll have a satisfying meal. Serve with salad and veggie.
