Heat the olive oil in a grill pan or a heavy based saucepan until scorching hot.
Season your pork chops with salt and pepper.
Be careful, olive oil gets blistering hot very quickly so check your pan and gently add your pork chops to the hot oil – standing back – it can be a bit messy.
Pan fry for about 5 minutes on one side, until your pork chops resembles a golden brown color.
Turn to the other side, for another 5 minutes, or until the chop achieves desired crispness.
Now add a few sprigs of rosemary and peppercorns.
Also turn your chop on its fatty rind side, for a few minutes, to crisp up that nice piece of fat.
Remove from heat; rest on kitchen paper and season with salt.
