{One Pan} Pork Chops And Brussels Sprouts
Bone in pork chops with tender Brussels sprouts cooked in one pan. A simple hearty meal, ready in 30 minutes.
I have not shared a ton of dinner recipes on my blog, but one pan meals are my favorite. They are simple, require less washing up and they always end up with great flavors.
I hope you are on the Brussels sprouts’ lovers side because this is a great weeknight dinner recipe. Pork meat is widely consumed in Europe and although I don’t cook it very often, I have a lot of family recipes for dishes with pork.
For the recipe, I used bone-in pork rib chops, which are very tender and require quick cooking. It can’t get any better, who has endless hours to spend in the kitchen?
I first seared the pork chops on the stove top and then transferred them to the oven to finish cooking. This is a popular technique, which I like for thicker cuts of meat. Brussels sprouts are cooked at the same time with the pork chops and the end result is amazing – tender, crispy Brussels sprouts, tossed in the fat released from the pork chops.
I’ve shared a few Brussels sprouts recipes with you and I absolutely love these mini cabbages. They are low in calories and very nutritious. They do have a slightly bitter taste after cooking. If you don’t like Brussels sprouts, simply leave them out. If you are a fan of them – I’m sure you’ll like this dish.

Hooray for one pot meals – love them! This is a great combo of pork chops and brussels sprouts – my husband would be all over this!
This looks delicious and will definitely try as my husband and I are doing a Clean Eating challenge in October. I can’t see anything naughty in this recipe. Thanks for sharing with us at #anythinggoes. Have a great week!
Brussels sprouts are one of my most favorite sides to pair with pork chops. We have them both fairly frequently. I cant wait to try your version.
I have 4, 4oz pork chops. Do you think they would be too lean for this recipe?
I forgot to say that they are boneless!
I think they should be ok, just be careful not to overcook them. Let me know how it turns.
Unfortunately my small town grocery store doesn’t always carry fresh brussels sprouts. How do you think this would turn out with frozen? It looks amazing!!
Thanks for visiting! Unfortunately I have not tried the recipe with frozen, but I think it should work.
Can I just ask ‘how many Brussels Sprouts’ are you using? Ounces, pounds, or count (by medium size/quarter-sized heads)?
2 cups which is around 1/2 pound
