# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
02 -
In a large bowl, combine 2 tablespoons olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Add the pork chops and toss until well coated. Allow to marinate for at least 15 minutes.
03 -
On a large sheet pan, arrange the halved baby potatoes in a single layer. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, half of the rosemary, and half of the thyme. Toss to coat evenly.
04 -
Push the seasoned potatoes to the sides of the sheet pan, creating space in the center for the pork chops.
05 -
In a small bowl, mix together the Dijon mustard and honey. Brush this mixture over the top of each marinated pork chop.
06 -
Place the pork chops in the center of the sheet pan, surrounded by the potatoes. Sprinkle the remaining rosemary and thyme over everything. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) and the potatoes are tender and golden brown.
07 -
For extra crispiness, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
08 -
Remove from the oven and let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes before serving.
09 -
Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
# Notes:
01 -
You can substitute boneless pork chops, but they may cook faster, so adjust the cooking time accordingly.
02 -
For added flavor, you can include other vegetables such as carrots, Brussels sprouts, or bell peppers on the sheet pan.
03 -
Leftover pork chops and potatoes can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
04 -
This recipe works well with different seasonings - try Italian seasoning or Cajun spice for variety.
