Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Pat the pork fillet dry with paper towels.
- Season both sides of the pork fillet generously with salt and black pepper.
- In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, finely crushed bay leaf, minced garlic, lemon juice, and white wine.
- Place the pork fillet into a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish.
- Pour the marinade over the pork, ensuring the fillet is well-coated.
- Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for a more intense flavor.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Remove the pork from the marinade, reserving the marinade for later use.

- Sear the pork fillet on all sides until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Transfer the seared pork fillet to a baking dish.
- Pour the reserved marinade over the pork.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) and the pork is cooked through.
- Remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
- Serve the baked garlic pork chops garnished with fresh herbs and a wedge of lemon if desired.
Tips:
- For best results, use fresh garlic and freshly squeezed lemon juice.
- Marinate the pork chops in the lemon juice and spices for at least 30 minutes before baking to enhance the flavor.
- Ensure the pork chops are dry before searing them to get a nice, crispy crust.
- Bake the pork chops until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) to ensure they are cooked through but still juicy.
