Ingredients
Method
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large sheet pan with parchment or foil for easy cleanup.
- Wash potatoes and cut into 1-inch chunks (or halve baby potatoes). Place in a large bowl.
- Pat pork chops dry with paper towels. Trim excess fat if desired.
- In a small bowl, mix garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Drizzle 2 Tbsp olive oil over potatoes and toss to coat. Sprinkle half the seasoning mix over potatoes and toss again.
- Rub remaining 1 Tbsp olive oil over both sides of pork chops. Sprinkle remaining seasoning mix evenly over chops, pressing it in.
- Spread potatoes in a single layer on one side of the sheet pan. Place seasoned pork chops on the other side.
- Roast at 425°F for 35–40 minutes. Flip pork chops and stir potatoes halfway through (~18–20 minutes) for even browning.
- Check doneness: Pork chops should reach 145°F internal (carryover to 150–155°F while resting); potatoes fork-tender with crispy edges.
- Rest chops 5 minutes, then serve hot with potatoes and optional fresh parsley or lemon wedges.
Notes
Pat everything dry → key for browning and crispiness.
Even potato sizes → uniform cooking.
Single layer + flip/stir halfway → even color and texture.
Use meat thermometer → prevents dry pork.
Rest pork 5 minutes → juices stay inside.
Add veggies (green beans, carrots) halfway if desired.
