Open in Pepper →Pork Chops That Take Care Of Themselves
A pork chop in the oven is one less pan to watch. You season it, slide it in, and use those 25 minutes to get rice going or help with homework instead of standing over a skillet.
Cooks on Pepper reach for these on the nights when the meat's still half-frozen at 5 o'clock and everybody's hungry by 6. A chop, a spice rub or a scoop of brown sugar, and dinner more or less handles itself.
Every recipe here is a baked chop worth repeating: plain Baked Pork Chops with olive oil and brown sugar, Honey Garlic Pork Chops, Parmesan Baked Pork Chops with Italian bread crumbs, French Onion Pork Chops in sour cream, Pork Chop Supreme layered with sliced potatoes, and a sheet-pan version with roasted potatoes and broccoli.
Quick Tips
- 1
Buy thick-cut chops
Chops at least 3/4-inch to 1-inch thick stay juicy in the oven; thin ones dry out in under 15 minutes.
- 2
Pull at 145 degrees
Check the thickest part with a thermometer and take them out at 145°F. A little pink in the center is fine.
- 3
Sear before baking
Two to three minutes per side in a hot skillet gives you a brown crust the oven alone won't build, especially with brown sugar or honey glazes.
- 4
Rest five minutes
Let the chops sit on the cutting board 5 minutes before cutting so the juices stay in the meat instead of on the plate.
