A quick and easy one-pan meal featuring juicy BBQ pork chops roasted alongside sweet corn and colorful bell peppers, perfect for busy weeknights.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 bone-in pork chops (about 1-inch thick) or boneless pork chops
  • ½ cup BBQ sauce (such as Sweet Baby Ray’s)
  • 2 ears fresh corn, husked and cut into thirds (or 1½ cups frozen corn kernels)
  • 2 bell peppers (1 red, 1 yellow), sliced into strips
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Chopped fresh parsley or cilantro for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Rub the seasoning evenly over both sides of the pork chops.
  3. Toss the corn pieces and sliced bell peppers with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them out in a single layer on one side of a large rimmed sheet pan.
  4. Arrange the pork chops on the other side of the pan, leaving space between each chop.
  5. Brush the pork chops generously with BBQ sauce.
  6. Place the sheet pan in the oven and roast for 20 minutes. Halfway through (about 10 minutes), flip the pork chops using tongs, stir the vegetables gently, and brush the flipped pork chops with more BBQ sauce.
  7. After 20 minutes, check that the pork chops have reached an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) and that the vegetables are tender with some charred edges.
  8. Remove from the oven and let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes to redistribute juices.
  9. Optionally garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro before serving.

Notes

Adjust roasting time by 3-5 minutes if pork chops are thinner or thicker. Stir vegetables halfway through roasting to prevent burning. Tent pan with foil if vegetables brown too quickly. Use a meat thermometer to ensure pork chops reach 145°F for safe consumption. Frozen corn can be used as a substitute for fresh corn.
