Ingredients
  

For the Pork Chops:

4 bone-in pork chops (about 1 inch thick)

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon dried rosemary

Salt and pepper to taste

Zest of 1 lemon

For the Crispy Potatoes:

1.5 pounds baby potatoes, halved

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, thyme, rosemary, salt, pepper, and lemon zest. Whisk together until well mixed.

      Marinate the Pork Chops: Place the pork chops in a large bowl or resealable bag. Pour the marinade over the chops, ensuring they are well coated. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for deeper flavor.

        Prep the Potatoes: In a separate bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper until they are evenly coated.

          Arrange on Baking Sheet: On a large sheet pan, spread the seasoned potatoes in an even layer. Place the marinated pork chops on top of the potatoes.

            Bake: Transfer the sheet pan to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) and the potatoes are golden and crispy.

              Broil for Crispness (Optional): For an extra crispy finish, switch the oven to broil mode for the last 2-3 minutes, keeping a close eye to avoid burning.

                Garnish and Serve: Remove the sheet pan from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the potatoes and pork chops before serving. Enjoy your delicious sheet pan meal!
