Season the pork chops on both sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the pork chops in the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until they are golden brown. Remove the chops from the skillet and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium and add minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the honey, soy sauce, and unsalted butter. Let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.
Return the pork chops to the skillet and spoon the sauce over them. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, ensuring the chops are fully cooked and well-coated with the sauce.
Remove the pork chops from the heat and let them rest for 2 minutes.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired, and serve warm with your choice of sides such as rice, mashed potatoes, or steamed vegetables.
