This letter reports the findings of the late time behavior of the out-of-time-ordered correlators (OTOCs) via a quantum kicked rotor model with $cal{PT}$-symmetric driving potential. An analytical expression of the OTOCs quadratic growth with time is yielded as $C(t)=G(K)t^2$. Interestingly, the growth rate $G$ features a quantized response to the increase of the kick strength $K$, which indicates the chaos-assisted quantization in the OTOCs dynamics. The physics behind this is the quantized absorption of energy from the non-Hermitian driving potential. This discovery and the ensuing establishment of the quantization mechanism in the dynamics of quantum chaos with non-Hermiticity will provide insights in chaotic dynamics, promising unprecedented observations in updated experiments.
