Sometimes I forget how quick and easy pork chops can be, but you have to admit, they sound kind of boring and we’ve all had dried out overcooked pork chops. Baked pork chops with peaches are so easy, simple and delicious that I don’t know why they haven’t been in my dinner rotation. The juices from the sweet roasted peaches combine with the pork chops while they roast together in the oven. Did I mention that these are cooked on a sheet pan in the oven, so you only have 1 pan to clean up afterwards.
Natalie wanted to know why we don’t eat pork chops more. I blame it on Mike, when he was in the Navy, many years ago, they had overcooked pork chops a lot so it’s not his first choice. However, he has decided he now loves pork chops with peaches.
You can prep these in less than 10 minutes. All you have to do is slice the peaches, leaving the skins on and toss with olive oil, salt and pepper. That’s it! The flavors are great even though you’re just using salt and pepper. I use bone-in pork chops and try to find peaches that are ready to eat for the sweetest flavor you can find. We prefer a pork chop that’s about one inch thick, if they are thicker, you’ll need to cook them a bit longer.
