Place the thin-cut pork chops on a large plate or in a shallow dish and pat them dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, honey, and apple cider vinegar to create the marinade.
Brush the marinade evenly over both sides of the pork chops, ensuring they are well-coated. Let them rest at room temperature for 10 minutes while you preheat the grill.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400Β°F/200Β°C) and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Place the pork chops on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on the first side, without moving them, to ensure nice grill marks.
Flip the pork chops and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes on the other side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145Β°F (63Β°C) using a meat thermometer.
Remove the pork chops from the grill and let them rest for 3-5 minutes to retain their juices.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired, and serve immediately. Pair with your favorite side dishes like grilled vegetables or a crisp salad for a complete meal.
