Easy Oven Baked Pork Chops Recipe
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.
Ingredients
- 4 Bone-in Pork chops but you can also use boneless cut my pork chops are just about 1-inch thick
- 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- ½ tablespoon smoked paprika
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- ½ tablespoon fennel seeds
- 2 teaspoon garlic granules
- 2 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon oregano
- 1 teaspoon parsley
- Salt and black pepper about 1 teaspoon each or as to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200C/400F for a conventional oven or 180C/365F for a fan oven
- Pat the pork chops dry with a kitchen towel and place on a baking tray. Season the pork with salt and peppers and set aside
- To a bowl, add extra virgin olive oil, fennel seeds, oregano, parsley, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, brown sugar and mix together to combine to form a marinade.
- 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.

Notes
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 a 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.
