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.

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)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

  2. Add the olive oil, paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, and salt and pepper to a small bowl and mix until it forms a paste.

  6. Arrange the veggies to lay as flat as possible on the sheet pan and nestle the pork chops on top.

  7. 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.

  8. Serve immediately with a sprinkling of fresh parsley, if desired.

      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!

        You can, although I’d recommend thawing them mostly first before cooking, or adjusting the cooking time accordingly.

    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.

      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 🙂

    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
