You guys know how much I love a good sheet pan meal, especially on those super busy weeknights when everyone is working late and we’ve got to run off to ballet class or some other evening activity. I’ve shared so many of my favourite easy meals with you in the past, like this One Pot Pepperoni Pizza Pasta, or this Italian Sausage Sheet Pan Dinner, and even this Paprika Chicken Sheet Pan Dinner. And today, I’ve got this absolutely delicious, totally nutritious Easy Pork Chop Sheet Pan Dinner for you – you’re going to LOVE it!
One of my favourite things about sheet pan dinners is how few dishes I have to wash afterward. Not only is this Easy Pork Chop Sheet Pan Dinner an absolute snap to prepare (seriously, just 10 minutes!), there’s only a couple dishes to wash which saves me even more time in the kitchen!
One kitchen tool you’re going to want to invest in for this meal is a meat thermometer. Whether it’s instant-read or one that stays in for the entire cooking time, you’ll want to be sure that you don’t let the pork cook past an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit or 62 degrees Celsius – otherwise you’ll be left with dry pork. I have THIS MEAT THERMOMETER and I absolutely love it. It works great and it’s easy on the wallet! (affiliate link)

Easy Pork Chop Sheet Pan Dinner
Ingredients
For the pork chops:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (use less if desired)
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
- 2 teaspoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- salt and pepper (to taste)
- 4 medium boneless pork chops
For the vegetables:
- 4-6 medium potatoes, chopped into small 1-inch chunks
- 1 cup frozen baby carrots
- 1 cup frozen green beans
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (use less if desired)
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons dried parsley (or freshly chopped)
- salt and pepper (to taste)
- fresh parsley for garnish (if desired)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Add the olive oil, paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, and salt and pepper to a small bowl and mix until it forms a paste.
- Rub the mixture onto both sides of the pork chops and set aside.
- Add the chopped potatoes, the baby carrots and green beans to a large sheet pan.
- Pour the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, parsley and salt and pepper over the top and toss well to coat.
- Arrange the veggies to lay as flat as possible on the sheet pan and nestle the pork chops on top.
- Place the sheet pan in your preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes, or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Serve immediately with a sprinkling of fresh parsley, if desired.
Linda Gilmore says
Why is the olive oil, garlic powder, salt and pepper listed twice?
Chrissie says
Great question! The first section is for the pork rub and the second section is a kind of dressing for the veggies. It’s all outlined in the instructions! Hope that helps!
Hazel says
Can you make this with frozen pork chops?
Chrissie says
You can, although I’d recommend thawing them mostly first before cooking, or adjusting the cooking time accordingly.

OMG, was searching for a “pork chop sheet pan dinner” and found your site… This recipe is the cat’s pajamas!!! Can’t wait to try this for dinner tomorrow night! And can’t wait to check out some of your other recipes! GREAT site you’ve got, and love the print function! Thanks!!!
Chrissie says
Thanks so much! I hope you enjoy the recipe!!
Char says
Ok, I made this for dinner tonight. I cut my potatoes into 1/2″X1″ pieces, and used frozen sliced carrots because my local Winn Dixie didn’t have frozen baby carrots. We enjoyed it, but… 20 minutes was PERFECT for the chops, but not the veggies. I had to put them back in the oven for another 5 minutes, then put them into a glass bowl and nuke them for another 3.5 minutes… and they were still a little bit too hard for our liking. Flavor was delish… hubby asked me how I barbequed them without using sauce. lol If I make this again, I’ll put the veggies in for maybe 10 minutes, THEN add the chops and bake another 20 minutes. Thanks for a good recipe though, I just have to adjust cooking times.
Chrissie says
Thanks so much for you comment! Every oven is different, but good on you for adjusting the baking times. I’ll make a note in the recipe 🙂
Laurie May says
exactly what I did, put inmy vegy’s for 30 minutes first, then tossed them around, and then put the chops in, and put back in the oven for 25 minutes, everything done perfectly!!
Lori says
I am trying this tonight, I had that thought myself. There is no way those veggies will cook in twenty minutes, so i put them in and will add pork chops later. My oven temp is accurate at 400.
Catharine says
Sounds like a winner– I will use parsnips instead of green beans because that is what I have in and cook them to tender first
Chrissie says
Sounds like a great substitution! Enjoy!
The Busy Baker says
Thanks Catharine! That sounds like a great idea🙂
Louisa says
It’s in the oven now . It looks delicious and was so easy !Cant wait to try it . Thank you .
Chrissie says
Hope you love it!
Beth Blake says
I have bone in pork chops in my frig…..anything I need to do differently to use them in this recipe?
Chrissie says
Not particularly, just watch the baking time and test the internal temperature 🙂
robert brownlee says
I’m trying it tonight. My wife works late and it seems like s perfect supper for her. Thanks.
The Busy Baker says
I hope she enjoyed it!! 🙂
Deirdre Teodosio says
Just made this dish and my picky 10 year liked it! Thank You!!!
Chrissie says
So glad everyone loved it!
Lena says
Can’t wait to try this recipe tonight! Can baby red potatoes be used in this?
Chrissie says
Yes, absolutely!
Lori J Jankowski says
Could fresh green beans and baby carrots be used, rather than frozen?
Chrissie says
Yes, absolutely. It might be a good idea to blanch them first before roasting, but it’t not necessary.
Judy Pyra says
This is my first visit to your wonderful site. I was looking for a quick week night alternative to our regular pork chop recipe. I have been cooking family favourite recipes for over 30 years and this particular recipe was a huge hit. This easy one pan meal is absolutely delicious, economical and healthy. I am so impressed I plan to try several of your other recipes this week. I encourage others to do the same. Kudos to you!
The Busy Baker says
So glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a comment! 🙂
shayna says
Got it cooking now, i used sweet potatoes cuz we like those better, and used fresh carrots/green beans/parsley, can’t wait to try it!
The Busy Baker says
I love that addition! Let us know if you like it!!
June says
Made this for dinner last night and it was delicious! Such an easy weeknight dinner. Will definitely make again.
Chrissie says
So glad you loved it!
Margaret Hepper says
Looking forward to making this recipe. May I use fresh baby carrots and green beans? Any particular kind of potato, red, gold, etc.? Thanks!
Chrissie says
Anything works! Enjoy! 🙂
Amber says
Could I use fresh vegetables instead of frozen or will that throw everything off?
Chrissie says
Yes! Feel free to use fresh!
Christi says
I have tried this recipe and roasted the vegetables about 15 minutes before adding the pork chops…it is delicious!!! Love the brown sugar mixture on the meat…wow. Thank you..Christi
Chrissie says
So glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
April says
This was a huge hit! Loved it!
The Busy Baker says
So glad to hear that April!😊Thank you!
Sarah R. says
Made this for dinner last night and it was delicious. My only thing is the veggies were not cooked and I even made sure to cook them 10 minutes first, added the pork chops, the cooked 25 minutes. They still were underdone so we had to cook them another 15 minutes. They weren’t cut to large either. But otherwise the flavor was delicious and my husband loved it!
Chrissie says
So glad you liked it!
Maya says
The pork chops were done in 20 minutes but the vegetables and potatoes weren’t! I suggest putting the vegetables nad potatoes i;for at east 15 minutes before adding the pork chops and the;cooking. a further 30 minutes. Taste was pretty good.
The Busy Baker says
Thanks for your feedback Maya!😊
Marsha Jester says
This was easy and very good. I served with watermelon salad.
The Busy Baker says
Thanks Marsha!
Lacy Beck says
I have this in the oven right now! 🙂 I cooked the veggies for 15 min while getting the meat ready and now cooking the meat
The Busy Baker says
That sounds delicious!! Let us know how it turned out!🙂
Brady says
Finally starting to feel like I can cook for a family 🙂
The Busy Baker says
So glad to hear that Brady!! Thank you!!🙂
TONI L BACCHITTA says
Adored this!! With my oven, I decided to cook the veggies I used (fresh potatoes and baby carrots) for at least 1/2 hour on their own. Then added boneless porkchops and cooked to temp, so about fifteen minutes. Veggies were perfect, chops were moist and tender. Many thanks!!
The Busy Baker says
You’re welcome!!🙂 I’m so glad you enjoyed it and found it simple to make!!
DawnB says
I made this tonight and it was a hit! I doubled the carrots (fresh not frozen) and potatoes, and made an extra pork chop too. I read other people’s comments about cooking the veggies longer and put those in for 20 minutes before adding the pork chops. My teen son ate double his normal portions, and there is nothing left. I will definitely make this again!! Thanks for the recipe.
Chrissie says
Glad you liked it!!
The Busy Baker says
I love that addition! Thanks so much for your positive feedback Dawn! So glad you love it!
Kelli says
Cooking now and the house smells great. I had to take the pork chops out and put the veggies back in. Hopefully not to much longer, the smell is making me hungry.
The Busy Baker says
Thanks so much for letting us know Kelli! Glad you liked the recipe!!🙂
Gina says
I made this for dinner tonight and it was very good! I will definitely keep it in the dinner rotation. Five stars for ease and simplicity, everything being in one pan, very little attention needed once it goes in the oven, and taste! However, four stars for instructions as the timing just doesn’t work for everything to cook for the same amount of time. I did carrots and potatoes in the oven for thirty minutes and then added the pork chops for another twenty minutes, and everything was cooked perfectly.
The Busy Baker says
I’m happy you enjoyed it and found a way to tweak it to work for you!
Brenda C says
I cooked this for dinner tonight. My family loved it!
