Ingredients:
• 4 bone-in or boneless pork chops (about 1-inch thick)
• ½ cup brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions:
1. Prepare the Chops:
• Pat pork chops dry and season both sides with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and paprika.
2. Sear the Chops:
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Sear pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
3. Make the Brown Sugar Glaze:
• In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium.

4. Coat & Simmer:
• Return pork chops to the skillet, coating them in the glaze.
• Reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 5-7 minutes until the chops are cooked through (internal temp of 145°F / 63°C).
