Easy Baked Pork Chops with Rosemary are baked bone-in pork chops blanketed in a rich, garlicky, buttery sauce topped with fresh aromatic rosemary. And when I say easy, I mean easy! The most complicated part of this easy pork chops recipe is choosing a thick bone-in pork chop!
Mix the melted butter, rosemary, and garlic together in a small bowl and set aside.
Season the pork chops on both sides with kosher salt and pepper.
Place a large cast iron or oven-safe skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. When the oil is shimmering, add the pork chops. Cook for 4 minutes or until golden brown on the first side, flip over and cook for an additional 4 minutes.
Use a pastry brush and brush the butter, garlic, rosemary mixture generously over the pork chops.
Place the skillet in the oven and cook the pork chops for 10-12 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the meat registers 145 degrees F.
Remove the chops from the oven, place on a plate or cutting board, and cover with aluminum foil or a plate. Let the pork chops rest for 3 minutes and then serve.
