Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
Season both sides of the pork chops with salt and pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Sear the pork chops for about 2 minutes on each side until golden brown.
In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with the minced garlic.
Place the pork chops in a baking dish, brush them with the garlic butter, and add the thyme sprigs around them.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the pork chops are fully cooked.
Allow the meat to rest for a few minutes before serving to keep it tender and juicy.
