Ingredients
- 4 pork chops bone-in or boneless, about 1 inch thick
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F.
- Pat pork chops dry with paper towels. This helps them brown instead of steam.

- Season generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
- Place pork chops on a baking sheet or in a baking dish, leaving space between each one.
- Bake according to thickness guidelines above.
- Remove from oven once internal temperature reaches 145°F.
- Rest for 3–5 minutes before serving.
Notes
This seasoning amount works well for 4 standard pork chops. Adjust slightly if using very large or thick cuts.
- Cooking time depends on thickness.
- ½-inch thick: 8–12 minutes
- 1-inch thick: 15–20 minutes
- 1½-inch thick: 20–25 minutes
- Bone-in chops may take slightly longer.
- Always cook to 145°F internal temperature and rest 3–5 minutes.
- See full post above for temperature chart and thickness guide.
