Ingredients
- 4 bone-in or boneless pork chops
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
- Prepare the Pork Chops:
Season the pork chops with salt and pepper on both sides. - Cook the Pork Chops:
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside. - Make the Honey Garlic Sauce:
In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add the honey, soy sauce, and apple cider vinegar, stirring to combine. Let the sauce simmer for 3-4 minutes until it thickens slightly. - Coat the Pork Chops:
Return the pork chops to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top. Let them cook in the sauce for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the glaze to soak in. - Serve:
