Steps:
- Pat dry pork chops with a paper towel.
- Rub pork chops with 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
- In a small bowl mix salt, pepper and paprika and rub onto the pork chops. Set aside.
- Place a medium skillet (to which you have a lid for) over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil and once it is hot add the pork.
- Cook until golden, for about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Flip the pork chops to the other side, cook for one minute and reduce the heat to low. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook 5 to 12 minutes (check every 2 minutes after 5 mins), or until an instant-read thermometer reads 145 degrees F when inserted into the thickest part of the chop. If you do not have a thermometer.
- Transfer pork chops to a plate or cutting board and cover loosely with aluminum foil.
- Let the pork rest for 5-10 minutes.
- Using the same skillet, increase the heat to medium-high and add the cherry tomatoes, sear them until lightly charred, remove and set aside on a plate.
- Add the chicken stock, vinegar, maple syrup, and brown sugar to the skillet, stir and add 2 sprigs of fresh rosemary.
- Use a wooden spoon to scrape the bottom of the skillet to remove any bits that stuck to it. Bring the mixture a simmer and cook until reduced by half.
- Taste and adjust for salt, acidity or sweetness.
- Take the skillet off the stove, and when the sauce is no longer simmering, stir in the butter. Discard rosemary.
- Add back the pork chops back into the pan and drizzle some of the sauce on top. Add back the tomatoes.
- Sprinkle some chopped fresh parsley on top and garnish with a few fresh rosemary sprigs before serving.

Tips:
- To ensure your pork chops are cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check that they have reached an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) before removing them from the skillet.
- If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check for doneness by cutting into the pork chop and making sure the juices run clear, with no pink in the center.
- For a crispier pork chop, sear it in the skillet over high heat for a few minutes on each side before reducing the heat to medium-low and cooking through.
- If you want a more flavorful pork chop, marinate it in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, herbs, and spices for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
- To add a pop of color and extra flavor to your skillet pork chops, try using different vegetables, such as bell peppers, onions, or mushrooms.
