Oven Baked Pork Chops – easy one-sheet pan meal with juicy and tasty pork chops and roasted veggies on the side. A perfect family-friendly meal for a quick weeknight dinner!

I did my groceries last weekend, only to find out that I haven’t cleared up all of my meat in the freezer.

First off, I didn’t check out my freezer before I stepped out of the house. Second, I’m pretty thankful for how easy pork chops are to deal with. Agreed? And one of my favorite ways of preparing them is this Oven Baked Pork Chops with vegetables. Additionally, it really can’t get easier than this with a one sheet hearty recipe.

How to season pork chops?

Pork chops are without a doubt one of the easiest meats to season. You can either marinate them or simply slather with a dry rub. Whatever you choose, they always turn out absolutely great and perfect for busy weeknights or dinner date nights at home. As a matter of fact, even salt and pepper would do.

But I love to experiment! So I ended up with oven baked pork chops seasoned with my trusted homemade creole seasoning for warm flavors, along with thyme and garlic, Dijon mustard for a bit of acidity, and brown sugar for a bit of sweetness and a beautiful caramelization.

Oven Baked Pork Chops

How long should I bake pork chops?

Since pork chops are a tender and quick-cooking meat cut, I always prefer to bake it in the oven as the gentle heat of the oven lets me control the rate of cooking. Cooking them on a stovetop makes it easier to overcook them.

For a bone-in chop of about a 1/2-3/4 inch thick, I suggest you cook them around 18-22 minutes at 400 F  or until it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degress F. Additionally, pork chops with bone-in are quite juicier compared to the boneless one, so I highly suggest you buy the ones with bone-in.

How long to bake boneless pork chops?

On the other hand, if boneless pork chops are more appealing to you, you can cook your oven baked pork chops at around 15-19 minutes at 400 F. But if you have a thicker cut around 1 inch or so, try adding a few more minutes or until the thickest part reads 145 F degrees.

Moreover, don’t forget to cut the potatoes no larger than 4 cm/ 1 1/2 inch in diameter, or else they don’t cook at a prescribed time. You can cut the carrots in chunks but I prefer to have it lengthwise so they’ll cook properly.

These oven baked pork chops are without a doubt a family hit even to the most picky eater you have. Want more pork chop recipes? Try these easy Pan Fried Boneless Pork Chops here, Smothered Pork Chops  OR this Marinated Pork Chops.

Tips & Notes:

  1. You may leave out the vegetables and just bake the pork  or add whatever vegetables you wish to pair with your pork chops.
  2. Additionally, for thicker pork chop cut around 1 inch thick or so, try adding more cooking minutes until the thickest part reads 145 F degrees.

    Hi, this recipe sounds delicious. I can’t wait to try it! I have one question is the calorie count for the chop only,or does it include a seving of the vegetables?

      Hello , I Have updated nutrition calculator. It’s for the pork and vegetables. However, keep in mind that this is just an estimate . It might vary depending on the thickness of the pork.
      Hope this helps.

    Awesome recipe! My wife and I really enjoyed it. I normally BBQ most of the meat we eat. It was nice to try something like this in the oven. We’ll definitely be trying this again. I did use Cajun seasoning instead of creole and Italian seasoning instead of thyme (only because we didn’t have them) still was awesome!!!

    I made the seasoning and baked the chops just as the instructions said and it was scrumptious!! I prepared the potatoes and carrots in a separate dish and sprinkled some of the Cajun dressing on them and they were so tasty and tender. Thank you for this recipe. No fried pork chops for me!

    Not posting a rating, as I have yet to make this recipe. I have a question about the seasonings. You say, “Creole seasoning”, followed by (homemade here), then list several other herbs and spices. I would like to try this recipe. I want to make sure I get it right. So my question is…Do you use already made Creole seasoning AND all the other stuff? Or do the other herbs and spices create the Creole seasoning? And last, if the answer to my original question is the former, what is your recipe for your homemade?

      Hi, Brian. I use my homemade creole seasoning here >> https://www.africanbites.com/creole-seasoning/ and add it to the rest of the ingredients on the list for this Oven Baked Pork Chops. You may also use the store-bought ones and if possible go for the one with lesser salt amount. Hope this helps.

    We tried your recipe today. It worked really well! I added a little brown sugar on top. My porkchops were a bit thick, so it took about 30 minutes to reach the right temp. But they were delicious!!! Thank you
