Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, smoked paprika, dried thyme, salt, and pepper.

  3. Brush both sides of the pork chops with olive oil and season them generously with the spice mixture.

  4. Place the seasoned pork chops on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the pork chops.

  5. While the pork chops are cooking, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add a splash of olive oil and sauté the sliced red onion until softened, about 2-3 minutes.

  6. Add the red and yellow bell peppers to the skillet and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until the peppers begin to soften.

  7. Stir in the cherry tomatoes and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the tomatoes just start to burst.

  8. Season the vegetable mixture with salt and pepper to taste.

  9. Once the pork chops are done cooking, remove them from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.

  10. To serve, divide the vegetable mixture among plates and top each with a pork chop. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
