Instructions
- Combine all marinade ingredients in a mason jar and shake until combined.
- Place pork chops and marinade in zipper top bag and let marinate 6-24 hours.
- Heat a large skillet on medium heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil until the oil is shimmering.
- Let the excess marinade drip off of the pork chops into the bag. Transfer half of the pork chops to the pan.
- Cook until dark and seared, about 3-4 minutes.
- Flip, and repeat until the chops are cooked through, the temperature should register about 160 degrees F.
- Remove from pan and tent with foil.
- Repeat steps 3-7 with the remaining pork chops.
- After all the chops are cooked, turn heat to low and pour remaining marinade in the pan.
- Bring to a simmer and scrape the bottom of the pan. It should reduce very quickly, if too much of the liquid evaporates out, add a few tablespoons of chicken stock to keep it liquid.
- Once the marinade is reduced, turn off the heat and add the cold butter, gently stirring as you add it.
- Add chops back into the sauce, basting lightly.
- Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley.

Notes
- I use thin-cut pork chops. If you are using thicker chops, you will need to cook them on medium-low heat for 6-7 minutes per side.
