Ingredients

  • 4 boneless pork chops, ½-inch to 1-inch thick, room temperature
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • parsley, chopped for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.* Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place the pork chops on the baking sheet. Drizzle them with olive oil, ensuring they are evenly coated on all sides.
  • In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper. Sprinkle evenly over the pork chops on all sides.
  • Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145°F.
  • Allow the baked pork chops to rest in the pan for 5 minutes. This step helps redistribute the juices, ensuring a juicy and tender result.
  • Serve garnished with parsley.

Notes

*Air Fryer Instructions:
  1. Preheat air fryer to 375°F.
  2. Prepare the pork chops as instructed.
  3. Place seasoned pork chops into the basket of your air fryer.
  4. Air fry for 11-13 minutes, or until the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145°F, flipping halfway through cooking. (Depending on the thickness of the pork chops, cooking times may vary.)
