**Instructions:**

1. **Prepare the marinade:** In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic, smoked paprika, thyme (or rosemary), salt, and pepper. Add honey or mustard if you like a touch of sweetness or tang.

2. **Marinate the pork chops:** Rub the marinade evenly over each pork chop. Let them sit for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight in the fridge) to absorb the flavors.

3. **Cook the pork chops:** Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chops for about 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown.

4. **Finish in the oven:** Transfer the skillet to a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) and roast for 8-10 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

### 💡 **Tips for Pork Chop Perfection**

* Don’t skip the resting time after cooking; it helps the juices redistribute for maximum tenderness.
* Use a meat thermometer to avoid overcooking — pork is best juicy, not dry.
* Experiment with herbs and spices to make it your signature dish.
