BAKED THICK BONELESS PORK CHOPS RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425° F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. (You can also bake pork chops in a baking dish, without parchment.)
• Pat pork chops dry with paper towels. Rub pork chops with the olive oil and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
• Combine the brown sugar, paprika, onion powder, dried thyme, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Stir to mix well.
• Rub the spice mixture over all sides of the pork chops.
• Bake pork chops in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes for 1-inch thick boneless pork chops. The pork chops are done when the internal temperature measures 145° F on an instant read thermometer. (Thinner pork chops will cook faster, bone-in pork chops will take longer to cook. See notes.) Be careful not to overcook the pork chops or they may dry out.
• Let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes and then serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
• Mix together black pepper, seasoning salt, garlic & onion powder. Rub evenly all over each pork chop. (Season to your taste. My husband doesnt like his as salt so I season his less.)
• Heat olive oil in a frying pan over med-high heat. Lay pork chops on pan and allow to sear for 2 minutes without moving them. Flip the pork chops over and allow to sear for 1 minute longer.
• Remove pork chops and place in an oven safe baking dish. I use a 19 x 13 pyrex baking dish.
• Pour in the water. You will want the water to come about 1/3 the way up the pork chop.
• Cover baking dish tightly. I use tinfoil and seal the sides very tight. Place in preheated oven.
• Bake for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Your pork should be at 160 degrees when done. I would not check until at least an 1 1/2 hours have past. You will let out all the steam that is keeping the chops moist.
• The juices in the baking dish make a wonderful gravy.
