Pork Chop Recipes: Sheet Pan Pork Chops and Potatoes

I’ve always loved dinners that don’t make me stand guard over the stove, and this one is a lifesaver on those evenings when I’d rather flop on the couch. These pork chops roast right alongside the potatoes, so the pan does all the heavy lifting. The best part? The kitchen smells like comfort, and cleanup is almost laughably easy. I know we’ve all seen endless pork chop recipes, but trust me, this one is different. No fancy breading or frying required, though I admit fried pork chop recipes have their charm. Instead, the chops roast up juicy, the potatoes get crispy edges, and everything lands on the table hot. Quick pork chop recipes don’t always deliver that kind of balance, but this one does. I’ve even tried sliding these into a roll the next day for a pork chop sandwich recipe moment—and it worked like a charm. If you’ve got thick pork chop recipes tucked in your back pocket, this one will join their ranks. Add it to your Sheet Pan Recipes folder because this meal is as low-stress as weeknights come.

Ingredients

  • 4 bone-in pork chops, about 1-inch thick
  • 1 1/2 pounds baby potatoes, halved
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
  2. Toss the potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper. Spread them on the sheet pan.
  3. Roast the potatoes for 20 minutes to give them a head start.
  4. Season the pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper. Nestle them onto the pan with the potatoes.
  5. Return the pan to the oven and roast for another 18 to 22 minutes, flipping the pork chops halfway through, until they reach 145°F internally.
  6. Remove from oven, let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes, sprinkle with parsley, and serve warm.
