Perfectly Baked Sweet and Spicy Pork Chops
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 small onion, coarsely chopped
  • 4 pork chops
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 3 tablespoons spicy brown mustard
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the desired temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit, or equivalently 190 degrees Celsius.
2
Next, take a moment to prepare your baking dish by coating it with oil to prevent any food residue from sticking.
3
Then, distribute the onion slices uniformly across the prepared baking dish.
4
Following that, place the pork chops on top of the onion layer.
5
Meanwhile, combine maple syrup, mustard, garlic, red pepper, chili powder, and salt in a small bowl.
6
Pour the resulting mixture evenly over the pork chops.
7
Finally, cover your baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven until the pork chops reach an internal temperature of at least 145 degrees Fahrenheit, or a reading of 63 degrees Celsius on an instant-read thermometer. The cooking time is estimated to be between 25 and 30 minutes.
