Introduction
Thin pork chops are an excellent choice for those who want to add some flavor to their meat, but don’t want it to be too fatty. The cooking time will vary depending on how thick the pork chops are. If you’re looking for something that’s not too heavy and can be prepared quickly, this recipe may be just what you’re looking for.
Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
To start, spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. You’ll want to use one that’s large enough to hold the pork chops in a single layer and has sides. This will help keep them from drying out too quickly as they cook. The lip of your pan should also be high enough so that if any grease drips down from the cooking surface, it won’t touch your oven floor (which can cause smoke).
Place the pork chops on the baking sheet and bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until they are done.
Place the pork chops on the baking sheet and bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until they are done. The oven temperature should be 350 degrees, but your cooking time will vary depending on how thick your individual chops are. When they’re finished, they should be no longer pink inside and cooked all the way through.
Pork chops can be served warm or cold; just make sure you let them cool enough so that they don’t burn your mouth!
Test the meat by cutting into one of the thicker parts to see if it is no longer pink inside.
Once the meat has been cooking for about 10 minutes, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of one of your pork chops. The pork should be cooked to 145 degrees Fahrenheit and no longer pink inside. If it’s still undercooked, continue baking until it reaches this temperature.
If you don’t have a thermometer on hand, use a sharp knife or fork to cut into one of the thicker parts of your pork chop (like at its center) and take a look at how red or pink its flesh is inside: if there are any traces of redness left in there, return it back into oven for another 5 minutes or so before checking again with your thermometer or cutting into another part on top side surface area where most likely won’t touch bone structure underneath either side surfaces’ thicknesses which will tend gets overcooked faster than other parts due heat transfer from hot air surrounding them so make sure every piece gets equal amount heat exposure during cooking process otherwise risk having dryer pieces near bones while leaving others too juicy soft tenderized goodness!
Once cooked, remove the pork chops from the oven and serve warm.
Once the pork chops are done, remove them from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes. This helps keep their tenderness intact while they cool down to room temperature. Use a meat thermometer to check that they’re cooked through before serving–they should read 145 degrees Fahrenheit at their thickest point.
If you don’t have an ovenproof pan or skillet, transfer your finished dish to an oven-safe serving dish before putting it into the preheated oven.
The steps above will help you cook thin pork chops in an oven.
- Use a meat thermometer to check if the pork chops are done.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Place baking sheet in oven and let it heat up for about 10 minutes before placing pork chops on it. This will help prevent sticking. You can also use nonstick cooking spray if you prefer not to use oil or butter in your cooking process, but this may not be necessary if you have a good quality baking sheet that doesn’t require extra preparation time before using it for this purpose.* Cook thin pork chops for about 15 minutes per side or until internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F (63 C).
