👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Preheat oven to 400F and spray a large baking or casserole dish with cooking spray; set aside.
2. 2To a small bowl, add the garlic powder, onion powder, brown sugar, salt, pepper, and mix lightly with a small spoon to create the dry rub; set aside momentarily.
3. 3Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and place them in the baking dish.
4. 4Drizzle them evenly with olive oil and rub it in lightly with your fingertips.
5. 5Evenly sprinkle the dry rub over the chops, making sure to get both sides, and rub it in to evenly coat the pork chops.
6. 6Bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until done. Pork chops are done when the internal temp is 145F as measured by an instant read thermometer. Allow the pork chops to rest about 5-10 minutes before optionally garnishing, slicing, and serving.
