Directions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F).
- 2
Rinse the pork chops under cold water, pat dry with paper towels, and drizzle with lemon juice.
- 3
Season generously with salt and pepper on both sides — pork absorbs seasoning well and needs a good amount.
- 4
Lightly oil a roasting pan, arrange the chops in a single layer and roast for 20 minutes.
- 5
Scatter the onion and bell pepper rings around the chops, then carefully flip each piece.
- 6
Continue roasting for another 20 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
- 7
Remove from the oven immediately once done — resting in residual heat will dry them out.
💡 Chef's Tip
For deeper flavor, marinate the chops in lemon juice, salt, and a drizzle of olive oil for 30 minutes before roasting.
