Description
Cheddar Ranch Pork Chops are a flavor-packed dinner delight combining tender pork chops with a creamy, cheesy ranch topping.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 pork chops (about 1 pound)
- 1 packet ranch seasoning mix
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoon minced garlic
- Salt and black pepper (to taste)
- Chopped parsley (for serving)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F. Lightly grease a baking dish to prevent sticking.
- Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel, then season them generously with salt and black pepper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, minced garlic, ranch seasoning mix, and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until the mixture is well combined.
- Spread the cheddar ranch topping evenly over each pork chop, ensuring the entire surface is covered.
- Place the prepared pork chops in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F and the topping is melted and golden brown.
- Remove the pork chops from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired.
Notes
For variations, experiment with different types of cheese or add spices for extra kick.
