Instructions

  1. Optional: Remove the pork chops from the refrigerator 30 minutes ahead of time to approach room temperature.
  2. Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C) with the rack in the middle position. Lightly grease a rimmed baking sheet with vegetable oil or cooking spray and set aside.
  3. Pat dry the pork chops with paper towels. Place them on a sheet pan in a single layer and rub with oil on all sides.
  4. In a small bowl combine paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Rub the seasoning mixture over all sides of each pork chop.
  5. Cover the pork chops loosely with aluminum foil and bake for about 15 minutes depending on thickness (see note). Do not flip the chops while baking.
  6. Check doneness by inserting an instant-read thermometer into the middle of the chop. Remove from the oven once the internal temperature reads 145°F (63°C).
  7. Using kitchen tongs, transfer the pork chops to a cutting board or a plate. Tent will foil and rest undisturbed for 5-7 minutes before serving.
