Method written by CompKitchen from the ingredient list. Not the original author's method, not kitchen-tested.

1. Whisk the lemon juice, chili garlic sauce, sesame seed oil, soy sauce and sriracha in a bowl until smooth.

2. Pat the boneless pork chops dry with paper towels. Set aside about a third of the sauce in a small bowl for serving.

3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

4. Add the pork chops in a single layer and sear for about 4 to 5 minutes per side, until golden brown.

5. Pour the remaining sauce over the chops in the pan. Turn them once and cook 1 to 2 minutes more, spooning the sauce over them.

6. Cook until the thickest part of each chop reaches at least 145°F (63°C), then rest the chops for 3 minutes before serving.

7. Spoon the reserved sauce over the chops just before serving.
