Season the pork chops on both sides with salt and ground black pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated fresh ginger, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the pork chops to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C). Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium and pour the honey soy mixture into the same skillet. Bring it to a gentle simmer.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Gradually whisk the slurry into the simmering sauce to thicken it.
Return the pork chops to the skillet and spoon the glaze over them until they are fully coated and heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish the pork chops with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
