Cuisine: American
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 pork chops (about 1 1/2 inches thick)
• 4 cloves garlic, smashed
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 sprigs fresh thyme

Here's how to make it:

1. Heat the olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Season the pork chops with salt and pepper. Put the chops into the hot pan and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 1 minute per side. Repeat that process, flipping every 1 minute, until the internal temperature reaches 135 degrees F, about 8 minutes. 
2. Add the garlic, butter and thyme and cook, stirring up all the brown bits and basting the pork, for about 1 minute. Let the pork chops rest a few minutes before serving. 

Note: If you are cooking thinner pork chops, adjust the cooking time.
