Ingredients
- 4 Pork Chops 1" to 1 1/2" thick
- 2-3 Tbsp Olive Oil
SPICE MIX
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 2 tsp Garlic Powder
- 2 tsp Onion Powder
- 3/4 tsp Salt
- 1/2 tsp Pepper
- 1 tsp Italian Seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400° F
- Place the pork chops in a baking dish*.
- Brush the olive oil on both sides of the chops, then sprinkle the spice mix on both sides.
- Bake the pork chops for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the meat is 140° F. Cook time will depend on the thickness of the pork chops. Don't let them overcook or they will dry out.
- After taking them out of the oven, lightly cover with foil and let rest for 10 minutes before serving**.
Notes
*Make sure the baking dish isn't too much larger than the chops as the extra space in the dish will dry them out easier. For example, if you are using a 9"x13" dish, and only 2 pork chops, there will be some extra space in the dish. Try finding a smaller baking dish.
You could add some veggies to the dish to fill in that extra space. Drizzle them with olive oil and a little salt.
**Serve with potatoes, rice, steamed or roasted vegetables, salad, cauliflower rice, pasta, or any side dishes you like!
