Ingredients
- 4 thick-cut boneless pork chops (about 1-inch thick and 6 ounces each)
- 1 cup Italian salad dressing (I use Ken’s Steak House Lite Northern Italian with Basil and Romano)
- ½ cup packed light brown sugar
- ½ cup Dijon mustard
- Kosher salt and ground black pepper, to taste
- Optional garnish: chopped fresh parsley or other herbs

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray a large baking dish with nonstick cooking spray; set aside. Pat pork chops dry with a paper towel. Season the pork on both sides with salt and pepper. Place pork chops in prepared baking dish.
- In a large measuring cup or bowl, whisk together salad dressing, brown sugar, and Dijon mustard.
- Pour the sauce over the pork chops.
- Bake uncovered until the pork is slightly pink inside, reaching an internal temperature of at least 145°F – about 20 minutes (use a meat thermometer to make it really easy!). I like to put the pork under the broiler for the final 3-4 minutes so that it gets a bit crispy on the top, but that step is totally optional. Keep a close eye on the pork when it's under the broiler so that it doesn't burn.
- Loosely cover the pork with foil and allow it to rest for at least 5-10 minutes. Spoon some of the extra pan sauce over the pork just before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley or other herbs if desired.
Notes
- Tip: This is a great freezer meal! Just place the raw pork chops in a large plastic freezer bag, pour the sauce into the bag, and freeze until ready to bake. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight, transfer pork and sauce to a baking dish, and cook according to instructions above.
- Cooking Just for Two? Cut the ingredients in half (using just 2 pork chops and half of the sauce), and bake the pork in an 8-inch square dish. The rest of the cooking instructions remain the same.
