Easy Oven Baked Pork Chops

Hey guys! I have a super easy and delicious dinner for you today! These pork chops with potatoes are one of our family’s favorite Sunday suppers! I specifically love them because they literally take less then 10 minutes to prepare, that includes peeling potatoes and cutting them all up, pop them in the oven and 30 minutes you’ve got the best dinner ever!

I love pork chops because they are leaner than other cuts of pork. Plus they are super versatile! They’re perfect for roasting, frying, or stuffing! Yes! Have you ever had a stuffed pork chop? Well you should, they’re incredible! These chops are so tasty, and they’re quick and easy to cook. This makes them a great choice for weeknights, or for anytime, really.

Ingredients

Main ingredients:

  • Potatoes Yukon gold
  • Olive oil
  • Pork chops bone-in OR boneless
  • Salt and Pepper
  • Garlic powder
  • Italian seasoning
Easy Oven Baked Pork Chops

Ideal internal temperature for pork chops

Way back when, safe temperature guideline for pork used to be 160 F degrees. As we all know, this resulted in tough and dry chops. It really was like eating shoe leather!

Well now we know better and the guidelines have changed. However we cook them, whether it’s grilling, sautéing, roasting or broiling, the rule is now to cook them to an internal temperature of 145 F degrees! This way we end up with juicy, tender pork chops every single time.

How to make pork chops

A good pork chop doesn’t require much in the way of seasoning so I’ve kept things super simple in this recipe. It doesn’t get much easier than this!

Preheat the oven to 375 F degrees. Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper, to save you the trouble of scrubbing later on.

In a large bowl, coat the potatoes in the oil, salt and pepper, then spread them onto half the sheet pan.

Season the pork chops with the garlic powder, Italian seasoning and some salt and pepper. Transfer the chops to the other half of the sheet pan.

Place the sheet pan in the oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 145 F degrees and the potatoes are fork tender.

Let the chops rest for at least 5 minutes before cutting into them.

How to serve

These pork chops already come with roasted potatoes! There you have it — the perfect pork chops for an easy weeknight dinner!

Otherwise, pork chops pair perfectly with almost any veggie, a simple salad, mashed potatoes or grains like pasta, rice or quinoa.

Leftovers

Like most cooked leftovers, these chops can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days.

Freezing

If you’d like to freeze your leftovers, wrap each chop individually in plastic wrap, place in an airtight container and freeze for 2 or 3 months. To reheat, thaw and reheat either in the oven or microwave.

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds potatoes such as Yukon gold, peeled and cut into cubes
  • 3 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 pork chops bone-in, about 1 inch in thickness
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
US Customary – Metric

Instructions

  • Preheat oven and prepare baking sheet: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
  • Prepare potatoes: In a large bowl, coat the potatoes in the oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper and spread onto half the sheet pan.
  • Prepare pork chops: Season the pork chops with the garlic powder, Italian seasoning and some salt and pepper. Transfer the chops to the other half of the sheet pan.
  • Bake: Place the sheet pan in the oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 145 F degrees and the potatoes are fork tender.
  • Let the chops rest for at least 5 minutes before cutting into them.

Tips & Notes:

  1. Pork: This recipe can be made using any pork chops, whether they’re bone-in or boneless. I prefer bone-in chops because they’re juicier. 
  2. Keep in mind that cooking time will vary depending on thickness of pork chops. Best way to tell when they’re done is to use an meat thermometer and when the internal temperature of the chops reaches 145 F degrees, they are done.
  3. Potatoes: Make sure you cut the potatoes all equal sizes, about 1 1/2 inches cubes, so this way they all cook at the same time.
  4. Nutrition: Nutritional information includes pork chops and potatoes.
