Ingredients Notes
The secret to making this recipe work is staging the cooking time of the ingredients. Hence, they all bake to tender perfection before leaving the oven.
- Pork Chops: We used boneless pork chops in about a 1-inch thickness. Try to get pork chops that are similar in size so they cook at the same rate.
- Baby Potatoes: Creamy baby Yukon gold potatoes take up a third of your sheet pan. You’ll half or quarter them into uniform pieces.
- Fresh Broccoli: Roasted broccoli florets are one of the best veggies. Paired with the pork and potatoes, it’s a complete meal.
- Olive Oil: You’ll use extra virgin olive oil for roasting the potatoes and broccoli.
- Spices: Garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika enhance the flavor of these pork chops.
- Kosher Salt and Black Pepper to taste.
- Parmesan Cheese: This is what brings the dish together. It adds a nice nutty flavor. Finely grated is best for sticking to the pork.
- Optional: The juice from 1 lemon really makes the flavor zing.

Step-By-Step Instructions:
Prep: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line the baking pan with parchment paper.
- Prepare Seasoning: In a small bowl, mix the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper (Image 1).
- Prepare Potatoes and Bake: Cut the potatoes into 1-inch pieces and season them with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of the seasoning mix. Drizzle with lemon juice (Image 2). Arrange them on ⅓ of the prepared baking sheet and bake for 5-10 minutes while you prep your pork.
- Prepare Pork and Bake: Season pork chops on both sides with the remaining seasoning blend. Pat seasoning mix in to make sure it sticks (Image 3). Add pork chops to ⅓ of the pan and bake for 10 minutes.
- Prepare Broccoli and Bake: Toss broccoli florets in one tablespoon of oil, salt, and pepper, any of the leftover spice mix, and a drizzle of lemon juice if desired. Place them on ⅓ of the baking sheet, return the pan to the oven, and bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until the pork chop reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) on a digital meat thermometer, and the vegetables are tender. Cooking times may vary, so checking for doneness periodically is a good idea.
- Rest the Meat: Once cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 3-5 minutes before serving (Image 4).
Serve the one-pan pork chops with potatoes, and enjoy your delicious and easy meal!
Pro Tip:
If you're using larger potatoes or want to speed up their cooking process, consider parboiling them for a few minutes before roasting. This helps ensure they're nice and tender inside.
Expert Tips
- Make-Ahead: When enjoying this easy dinner, fresh is best. However, you can prepare the vegetables and season the pork chops in advance. Place on the baking sheet and cook per the recipe instructions.
- Pan Recommendation: Use a large baking sheet with raised edges for best results. This ensures enough space for even cooking and easy tossing of the ingredients.
- Uniform Sizing: Cut the potatoes into uniform-sized pieces to ensure even cooking.
- Room Temperature Pork: Remove the pork chops from the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes before cooking. Allowing them to come to room temperature promotes more even cooking.
- Checking for Doneness: A digital meat thermometer is the best way to know when your sheet pan pork chop dinner is done.
- Rest the Meat: Allow the pork chops to rest for a few minutes after removing them from the oven. This helps the juices redistribute, keeping the meat moist and flavorful.
Storing
Store your pork chop sheet pan dinner leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until heated through.
Recipe FAQs
Yes, you can use bone-in pork chops. They're delish. Adjust the cooking time, as bone-in chops may cook slightly slower than boneless chops.
The pork chops are done when they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C). You can use a digital meat thermometer to check the temperature. The juices should run clear, and the meat should no longer be pink in the center.
You can customize the recipe by adding vegetables like carrots, bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, Brussels sprouts, or asparagus. Just ensure that the vegetables have similar cooking times to the broccoli. For example, Brussels will take longer than broccoli, so you'd want to put them in with the pork.
