Description
Juicy, golden-brown broiled pork chops with veggies all cook together under the broiler for a quick, flavorful, and family-friendly one-pan weeknight dinner. Ready in under 30 minutes with simple ingredients and minimal cleanup.
Ingredients
For the Broiled Pork Chops:
- 3-4 pork chops (bone-in or boneless, about 1 inch thick)
- 3 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion salt
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp turbinado or brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
For the Broiled Veggies:
- 1 zucchini, sliced into half-moons
- 1 yellow squash, sliced
- 1 red onion, cut into wedges
- 1 bell pepper (any color), sliced into strips
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Position an oven rack about 6 inches from the broiler. Line a sheet pan with foil or parchment paper and lightly coat with nonstick spray.
- In a small bowl, mix chili powder, garlic powder, onion salt, paprika, sugar, and black pepper. Brush pork chops with olive oil and coat evenly on both sides with the spice mix.
- Place the pan under the broiler and cook for 8 minutes on the first side. Flip and broil another 6–8 minutes, until golden and the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
- While the pork cooks, toss the vegetables with olive oil, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper on a separate sheet pan.
- Broil for about 10–12 minutes, flipping once, until the edges are caramelized and tender.
- Let pork chops rest for 3–5 minutes before slicing. Serve alongside the veggies and enjoy a fast, flavorful one-pan meal!
Notes
- Use thick-cut chops: 1-inch thick chops cook perfectly under the broiler without drying out.
- Refrigerate: Store in an airtight container up to 2 days.
- No broiler? Bake at 425°F for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
