Season the Pork Chops
Sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of the pork chops to taste.
Sear the Pork Chops
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the oil and heat until hot.
Place the pork chops in the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until they’re golden brown. Set the chops aside.
Prepare the Brown Sugar Glaze
Using the same skillet, add the brown sugar, chicken broth, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and minced garlic.
Stir and let the mixture simmer for about 2-3 minutes until it begins to thicken. Add paprika if desired for extra flavor.
Glaze the Pork Chops
Place the pork chops back into the skillet, coating them with the glaze.
Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for another 10 minutes, or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) and the glaze is nicely caramelized.
Serve
Spoon any remaining glaze over the pork chops when serving. These go wonderfully with sides like rice, mashed potatoes, or roasted veggies.
