  1. Set your sous vide machine to 140°F (60°C) and allow the water bath to reach the desired temperature.
  2. Season the pork chops generously with salt and pepper. Place them in a vacuum-seal bag, adding olive oil, thyme, and garlic if using.
  3. Seal the bag using a vacuum sealer or the water displacement method. Submerge the bag in the water bath and cook for 2 hours.
  4. Once cooked, remove the pork chops from the bag and pat dry. Heat a skillet over high heat and add a tablespoon of olive oil. Sear the pork chops for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.
  5. Serve the pork chops immediately, garnished with additional thyme if desired.
