Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, dried oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels. Rub the olive oil evenly over both sides of the pork chops.
Apply the seasoning mix generously to both sides of each pork chop, pressing it in lightly to adhere.
Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, melt the butter in the skillet.
Add the pork chops to the skillet and sear them for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown.
Once the pork chops are seared, pour the chicken broth into the skillet.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145Β°F (63Β°C).
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the pork chops rest for a few minutes.
Sprinkle the freshly chopped parsley over the pork chops before serving warm.
