In a bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with olive oil, Italian seasoning, garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Make sure they’re evenly coated—this helps them caramelize beautifully.
Step 4 — Assemble on a Sheet Pan
Place the seasoned pork chops on one side of the pan.
Spread the potatoes on the other side, cut side down for maximum crispiness.
Step 5 — Roast
Bake for 25–30 minutes, depending on the thickness of your pork chops.
Pork chops are done when the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Tip: For extra browning, broil the pan for 2–3 minutes at the end.
Step 6 — Rest and Serve
Let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes.
Serve hot with the roasted potatoes and spoon some of the delicious pan juices over the top.
✨ Tips for Perfect Pork Chops
-
Do not overcook — this is the #1 reason pork becomes dry.
-
Bone-in chops stay juicier, but boneless works too.
-
Use baby potatoes for faster roasting and better caramelization.
-
Arrange potatoes cut-side down for crisp edges.
-
Allow chops to rest before serving—this locks in the juices.
