Season the pork chops on both sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, sear the pork chops for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Remove the pork chops from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, and apple cider vinegar. Stir well to combine.
Bring the glaze to a simmer and let it cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
Return the pork chops to the skillet and spoon the glaze over them. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, basting occasionally, until the internal temperature of the pork chops reaches 145°F (63°C).
If desired, sprinkle fresh rosemary over the pork chops for extra flavor.
Remove from the heat and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
