Baked Pork Chops with Potatoes

Ingredients:

• 4 bone-in or boneless pork chops
• 4 large potatoes, peeled and cut into wedges
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
3. Arrange the Potatoes: Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a large baking sheet.
4. Season the Pork Chops: Brush the pork chops with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season both sides with salt and pepper.
5. Arrange the Pork Chops: Place the pork chops on top of the potatoes on the baking sheet.
