Pork Chop Sheet Pan Meal – Step by Step with Photos
Here is a step-by-step progression of how to make the recipe.
Step 1: Gather & Prep Ingredients
Preheat oven and mix spices in a small bowl.
Dice sweet potatoes into a small dice. Slice onions and apples. Drizzle on a bit of the olive oil and sprinkle with spices.
Step 2: Roast Sweet Potatoes, Apples, and Onions
First, roast just the sweet potatoes since they take the longest to cook. Then add the apples and onions and roast again.
Check for doneness. The veggies should pierce easily with a fork, and you want the apples to be soft but not mushy.
Step 3: Broil Pork Chops
Drizzle pork with the remaining oil and sprinkle on more of the spice mix. (You might not use it all.)
Broil, watching carefully so that the pork doesn’t overcook. These can also be grilled.
