Ingredients

Olive oil spray (from a spray bottle, not a store-bought, prefilled one that contains propellant; I used a Misto)
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar, not packed
2 (4-ounce) trimmed, boneless pork chops, about 3/4 inch thick (3 1/2 to 4 1/2-ounce chops are okay)
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Sea salt and pepper, to taste

Directions

1

Preheat the broiler.
2

Line a small baking sheet with nonstick aluminum foil.
3

Lightly mist the foil with spray.
4

In a small bowl, mix the ketchup and brown sugar until well combined.
5

Lightly mist both sides of the chops with spray, and then season them with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
6

Place the chops side by side on the prepared baking sheet, not touching.
7

Broil the chops about 2 minutes.
8

Flip them and broil 1 more minute.
9

Brush half of the ketchup mixture evenly over the top of each and continue broiling until the glaze caramelizes (browns) and the pork just barely has a hint of pink inside, 1 to 2 minutes more.
