• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

• 1 large shallot, diced

• 2 tablespoons honey

Directions

1. Season the pork chops with sea salt and pepper on both sides.

2. Over high heat, heat two tablespoons olive oil on a large sautee pan, add the chops and sear on both sides, 2-3 minutes each side. Remove and reserve.
