Sheet Pan Cranberry Pork Chops with Roasted Vegetables
This sheet pan cranberry pork chops recipe is everything you want in a weeknight meal: simple to prepare, full of color and flavor, and a one-pan dinner that makes cleanup a breeze.
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Line a large rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
Make the cranberry glaze:
In a small saucepan, combine cranberries, orange juice, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, and rosemary. Bring everything to a simmer over medium heat for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries burst and the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.
Prep pork chops:
While the cranberry glaze simmers, pat your pork chops dry. Rub both sides with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and cinnamon. Set aside.
Prep the veggies:
On the sheet pan, toss the brussel sprouts and red onion with the olive oil, salt, pepper, and thyme. Spread them out in a single layer, leaving space in the center for the pork chops.
Place the seasoned pork chops in the center of the pan. Brush each chop generously with the cranberry glaze, reserving about ⅓ of the glaze for later.
Place the pan in your preheated oven and cook for 15 minutes, then remove the pan and brush the chops with more glaze. Stir vegetables slightly to ensure even cooking.
Return the pan to the oven for another 10–15 minutes, or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) and the veggies are tender.
Let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes before serving or cutting into them. Spoon any extra cranberry glaze over the top. Garnish with fresh rosemary or orange zest for a festive touch.
