Oven Baked Garlic Pork Chops
Pork Chops seasoned, browned then baked in the oven for a moist & delicious meat for your meal. Use your favorite seasoning, garlic, salt & pepper. I use different herbs each time I make these, for a different taste every time. This time I used Italian seasonings.
Ingredients – I used garlic powder
instead of minced garlic.
Season the pork chops on both sides with garlic powder, salt,
pepper and Italian seasonings or your favorite herb.
Add the olive oil to a large skillet.
Preheat the skillet over medium high
heat and brown both sides of the pork chops.
Cover a baking sheet with foil, lightly spray the foil with
cooking oil, and place the browned pork chops onto the foil.
Bake in a preheated 400 degree oven for about 10 – 15 minutes
or until the thickest part is between 140 – 145 degrees. There
should be no pink remaining, however, do not over bake or
they will be dry. Remove from the oven and
let sit for 5 minutes then serve.

Those would be good with mash potatoes! It’s only 8:00 am and you have my stomach growling! Thanks Diane! The grandkids are scrambling into clothes, zoom school starts soon, and the little ones go to day care! I’m headed out for a much needed 5 mile hike! Hope all is well with you. C

It sounds like a well deserved 5 mile hike! Just got back from basketball practice for my granddaughter. They are still in school so I get 7 hours break a day. At my age it really helps…lol

Oh yes! The secret is cooking between 140-145 degrees. They are SO moist this way. I use different herbs all the time for different tastes (I grow my own). I also buy a boneless pork loin and cut it into pork chops….excellent taste. Thank you💕

This looks so good – and easy! I will be buying pork chops on our next trip to Aldi’s. Thanks for the tip about over baking. My pork chops seem to always be dry. I guess I have always erred on the side of making sure the pork was thoroughly cooked. Live and Learn! Thanks, and Enjoy your day!

The USDA said 140 degrees is safe and it makes a huge difference from when I use to cook pork to 165 degrees! Thank you Betty!

I really like this recipe and like the idea of buying my own pork loin and cutting it for chops. I also enjoy preparing a lot of recipes in the air fryer.

I wait for the boneless pork loin to go on sale, cut it into 1” pork chops and freeze into whatever amount you use for your family. It’s actually cheaper than buying regular pork chops. I get a lot of meals out of one pork loin.

That’s funny – I could see the kids begging/bugging you for brownies or Rice Krispy treats but are they taking the beef jerky to munch on at school? You are giving them lots of different foods to try, that’s for sure Diane.
