Learn how to cook pork chops in the oven perfectly at all time with this easy oven baked pork chops recipe. I used bone-in pork chops to make this amazingly juicy and flavourful recipe but you can also use boneless cut if that is what you have.  This recipe uses the most basic pantry ingredients, very affordable and ready in no time.

I love to serve mine with cubed roasted potatoes or creamy garlic mashed potatoes with a side of vegetable like this easy sauteed cabbage.

ingredients.

How to make oven baked pork chops

Rub the marinade on the sides of the pork. Drizzle with about a tablespoon of olive oil and bake in the oven uncovered for 10 minutes. Bring the pork chops out of the oven, flip sides and baste with the pan juice. Return the pan into the oven and continue to bake for another 7 minutes or until the internal temperature reads 165F.

How long should I bake pork chops

My best opinion is you let the thickness of the meat guide you. Mine was a little bit less than an inch and that was why I did not grill so as to not overcook it.

For 1-inch size pork, cook between 17 to 20 minutes at 400F/200C for a conventional oven or 180C/360F for a fan oven. For boneless pork chops, start checking from 15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 145F/62C

What to serve this recipe with

For a complete healthy meal, I like to serve pork chops with sauteed green beans (recipe coming soon) steamed broccoli or carrots and baked potato wedges.

Other serving suggestions include

Mac and cheese and I have just the right recipe for you.

Super creamy coleslaw

Mushroom rice

Roasted broccoli and cauliflower

Tips

  • Let the thickness of the pork guide you on how long you bake them for. If the pork thickness is not up to an inch, then cook the pork lesser than specified in this recipe.
  • For more caramelised finish, place the pork under the grill/broil for few minutes before serving.
  • For optimum flavour, marinade this pork chop for about 30 minutes or overnight preferably. You can double this recipe if using more than 4 pork chops.
