Stovetop: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little oil. Cook the pork chops 4–6 minutes per side, then pour in the honey garlic sauce and simmer until thickened and the chops are fully cooked.
Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill pork chops 5–7 minutes per side, brushing with the honey garlic sauce, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
Instant Pot: Pour 1/4 cup of water into the Instant Pot and place the seasoned pork chops on the trivet. Cook on high pressure for 8–10 minutes, then use the sauté function to thicken the honey garlic sauce over the chops.
