Forkful of sheet pan pork chops with apples, onions, and sweet potatoes.

I’m a firm believer that dinners can be both simple and elevated. This delicious sheet pan pork chops dish doesn’t use very many ingredients, cooks all on one pan, but combines unique flavors like apples and sweet potatoes to bring together a fantastic meal the whole family will enjoy! Fresh herbs are the secret to the strong flavor crust on these chops.

Ingredients

  • Pork chops: Usually a leaner cut of pork, you can use boneless pork chops, but keeping the bone on your pork chop if possible will help you get a more flavorful, tender cook.
  • Olive oil: Heart healthy, light oil to help everything cook evenly and keep the seasoning on.
  • Apples: I like to use a sweeter apple, like a gala or fuji, as it pairs nicely with the sweet potato.
  • Onion: Yellow onion is a great choice for this dish as it adds flavor without overpowering the other ingredients.
  • Sweet potatoes: Sweet and nutty, they roast to a creamy texture.
  • Fresh herbs: Rosemary, sage, thyme, parsley, garlic. The options are endless, but make sure to use fresh to really make the flavors pop.

How to Make Sheet Pan Pork Chops with Apples, Onions, and Sweet Potatoes

Detsemming herbs

Start your sheet pan pork chops by preparing your fresh herbs. I used sage, rosemary, thyme, and garlic to season my pork. Destem the herbs and finely mince them.

Grating garlic

Then in a small bowl, grate some garlic with a microplane.

Drizzling oil into bowl

Add the minced herbs, salt and pepper, and drizzle in some olive oil.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Cook pork chops uncovered in the oven. You can cover with foil after taking them out to let them rest if you wish.

You can, but it isn’t necessary as long as you season and prepare your pan correctly.

What is the secret to tender pork chops?

Use a thicker cut, and keep the bone on while you cook!
