Baked Pork Chops

Zutaten

• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon onion powder
• 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper (or to taste)
• 4 pork chops
• 1 tablespoon olive oil (or as needed)
• Fresh herbs (optional for garnishing (parsley, rosemary, thyme, oregano, etc.))

Zubereitung

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 400F and spray a large baking or casserole dish with cooking spray; set aside.

2. 2

   To 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. 3

   Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and place them in the baking dish.

4. 4

   Drizzle them evenly with olive oil and rub it in lightly with your fingertips.

5. 5

   Evenly sprinkle the dry rub over the chops, making sure to get both sides, and rub it in to evenly coat the pork chops.

6. 6

   Bake 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.
