Prep. Preheat the oven to 400˚F.
Combine the ingredients. In a small mixing bowl, combine honey, garlic, soy sauce, ketchup, chili sauce, and oregano; mix until thoroughly combined. Place the pork chops in a large bowl, pour the sauce over the pork chops, and mix it all around.
Sear the pork chops. Heat olive oil in an oven-safe 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and sauce to the skillet; sear the chops on both sides until just browned, about 2 minutes per side.
Bake the pork chops. Remove from heat, add the butter to the skillet, and place the pork chops in the oven. Cook for an additional 15 to 18 minutes or until cooked through. Pork chops are cooked through when the internal temperature reaches 145˚F.
Finish and serve. Remove from oven and transfer the honey garlic pork chops to a serving plate. Spoon the sauce over the chops, garnish with parsley, and serve.

Although the recipe specifies bone-in pork chops, boneless versions also work; however, boneless chops cook more quickly, so modify the cooking time as needed.
Use an instant-read thermometer to avoid overcooking. Aim for an internal temperature of 145˚F.
If you don't have honey, substitute it with maple syrup or brown sugar.
Remove excess fat to prevent the pork chops from curling during cooking.
To grill, reserve two tablespoons of the honey garlic sauce for basting. Coat the chops in the remaining sauce. Grill on medium-high heat, cooking about 5 minutes per side, and baste twice during cooking.
