Heat some oil in a skillet over medium high heat. For extra brown pork chops, add a bit of butter to the oil and allow it to melt. Place each boneless pork chop in the skillet and cook on each side for about 5 minutes. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and allow them to sit for 3 to 4 minutes before serving.
Sprinkle the salt, thyme and pepper on the pork chops. Let sit on counter top for 30 minutes. Place oil in large cast iron skillet (or heavy stainless steel skillet) and heat until medium hot. Place chops in the pan, placing them so they don't touch each other. Cook each side slowly (lower heat if necessary) until nice and golden brown on each side. This will take about 4 minutes per side. Cover the pan with a tight fitting lid. Turn off the heat, and let the chops sit for about 8- 10 minutes, depending on thickness of chops. After removing chops, you can de-glaze the pan with a little water, wine or broth and a touch of butter and serve as a sauce.
