How to Bake Pork Chops

Baking pork chops is a simple and delicious way to enjoy this meat. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to bake pork chops:

Ingredients: - 4 bone-in pork chops, about 1 inch thick - 1 tablespoon olive oil - 1 teaspoon salt - 1/2 teaspoon black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder - 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. Rub the pork chops with olive oil on both sides, and season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.

3. Place the pork chops on a baking sheet or in a baking dish, making sure they are not touching each other.

4. Bake the pork chops in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, depending on the thickness of the chops.

5. Check the internal temperature of the pork chops with a meat thermometer. They should reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) in the thickest part of the meat.

6. Once the pork chops are fully cooked, remove them from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute and make the meat tender and juicy.

7. Serve the pork chops with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a salad.

Enjoy your delicious and easy baked pork chops!
