Instructions
- Preheat oven to 230°C / 446°F.
- Cut potatoes into thin wedges and place in a baking dish or pan.
- Beat the pork chops using a meat pounder to tenderize them. You can also use the bottom of a big mug to do this if you don't own a meat pounder. Carefully though, making sure you won't hit the bone with it and break it.
- Place the pork Chops in the pan as well.
- Drizzle the olive oil over the meat and potatoes and squeeze the half lemon all over as well.
- Sprinkle the marjoram and thyme all over, and season with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper.
- Cut the garlic cloves in half and toss in the pan here and there.
- Add just enough water to cover the bottom of the pan completely.
- Bake for 20 minutes and then flip the pork chops and bake for another 15-20 minutes more until nicely browned on top. NOTE: You may also use an instat-read thermometer and bake the pork chops until the internal temperature reads 62°C / 145°F.
- Serve with a Greek salad, a Whipped Feta Dip, or some Tzatziki as a side dish.
