Heat olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Brown pork chops about 5 minutes per side.
Mix lemon juice, garlic, paprika, thyme, and cayenne pepper into the skillet. Cover, and simmer 20 minutes, cooking the chops to an internal temperature of 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
Remove pork chops from the skillet, and set aside. Over high heat, reduce the remaining liquid for about 5 minutes. Return pork chops to the skillet briefly, coating them on both sides with the reduced mixture.
Recipe Notes
If you are not a big fan of lemon you may want to cut the amount of lemon juice in half and replace it with chicken broth.
