You can trust these recipes to yield the juiciest, most tender pork chops every time, with a touch of fall flavors like apple, maple and sweet potato to make dinner even more delicious. Recipes like our Sautéed Pork Chops with Apples and Sheet-Pan Maple-Mustard Pork Chops & Carrots are healthy dinners that can be paired with whole grains or a side salad for a filling meal. 01 of 15 Sauteed Pork Chops with Apples View Recipe The Sugar and Spice Rub makes extra. So another time, use it to season pork tenderloin or lean burgers before broiling or grilling. 02 of 15 Skillet Pork Chops with Peas, Carrots & Pearl Onions View Recipe This superfast one-dish dinner is full of classic flavor and is such a crowd pleaser that you'll want to work it into your regular weeknight dinner rotation. We call for bone-in pork chops to maximize flavor, but boneless pork chops are a fine substitution. To round out this meal a little more, serve with rice or mashed potatoes. 03 of 15 Sheet-Pan Maple-Mustard Pork Chops & Carrots View Recipe You need just one pan for this satisfying weeknight dinner. A sweet and savory maple-mustard glaze livens up baked pork chops, while the carrots are jazzed up with flavor-boosting and anti-inflammatory garlic, ginger and turmeric. Rainbow carrots add colorful pizazz, but regular orange carrots are a just-as-tasty substitute. Pork dries out easily--using an instant-read thermometer ensures meat is cooked safely, but still moist. 04 of 15 Pork Chops with Creamy Mushroom Sauce View Recipe These seared pork chops are topped with a rich and creamy mushroom sauce that gets flavored with fresh herbs. 05 of 15 Garlic-Lime Pork with Farro & Spinach View Recipe In this easy main dish recipe, pork chops are paired with farro and spinach in a zesty peanut butter-lime sauce. This one-skillet meal will be on the table in under 30 minutes and requires minimal cleanup. 06 of 15 Pork Chops with Garlicky Broccoli View Recipe A little Parmesan in the pork chops' crunchy coating makes it extra-flavorful. The broccoli is simple yet special--try it alongside just about anything you're cooking, but it pairs perfectly with the pork here for a satisfying healthy dinner ready in just 30 minutes. 07 of 15 Pork Chops with Balsamic Sweet Onions View Recipe Balsamic onions and raisins add a burst of sweet and savory flavor to pan-seared pork chops. Round out this healthy dinner recipe with sweet potatoes and green beans. 08 of 15 Air-Fryer Pork Chops View Recipe These crispy breaded air-fryer pork chops don't require a lot of oil to create a deep-fried crispy crust. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce or alongside roasted veggies. Want to double the recipe? Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may have to cook the pork chops in batches, but that's easy to do. 09 of 15 Healthy Oven-Fried Pork Chops View Recipe These whole-wheat panko breadcrumb-coated pork chops get just as crispy as fried chops, but they're healthier. Oven-frying saves you fat and calories while producing chops that are crispy on the outside, yet juicy inside. Serve with steamed broccoli and baked sweet potato for a satisfying weeknight dinner. 10 of 15 Puttanesca Pork Chops View Recipe This flavorful pork chop dinner recipe is proof that bold Neapolitan puttanesca sauce can liven up more than just spaghetti. Unlike brined olives like Kalamatas, oil-cured olives have a meatier bite because they're coated in salt then macerated in oil. Look for them on olive bars or with other Italian products. Serve with sautéed broccoli rabe and whole-wheat orzo. 11 of 15 Maple-Mustard Pork with Roasted Sweet Potatoes & Cauliflower View Recipe The combination of sweet maple syrup and tangy mustard makes a flavorful marinade for quick-cooking pork loin chops in this healthy dinner recipe. Serve with roasted sweet potatoes and cauliflower for an easy, tasty meal that's ready in under a half an hour (if you marinate the pork ahead of time). 12 of 15 Barbecued Pork Chops with Roasted Potatoes & Kale View Recipe Cooking the potatoes and kale in a foil packet in this healthy recipe gives you moist and tender results while using less oil. Choose a barbecue sauce that has the least amount of sodium and added sugars. 13 of 15 Pork Chops with Red Cabbage and Pears View Recipe The sweet-and-sour cabbage pairs deliciously with braised chops and juicy pears in this German-inspired dish. 14 of 15 Seared Pork Chops with Apples and Onion View Recipe Seared pork chops topped with sautéed apples and onions are served over brown rice and sprinkled with thyme in this easy main dish recipe. Want something green with this meal? Pair it with steamed green beans or an arugula salad. 15 of 15 Mediterranean Pork Chops View Recipe These Mediterranean Pork Chops are seasoned with rosemary and ready in just 45-minutes.
