Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces pork chops (bone-in or boneless)
- 3 medium potatoes (sliced thinly)
- 2 medium carrots (sliced into sticks)
- 1 medium onion (sliced into rings)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 4 teaspoons butter
- 4 sheets aluminum foil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lay out 4 large sheets of aluminum foil, each big enough to wrap a pork chop and vegetables in a secure bundle.
In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced potatoes, carrots, and onions. Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil, minced garlic, dried rosemary, paprika, 1 teaspoon of salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat evenly.
Place one pork chop in the center of each foil sheet. Season each pork chop with the remaining 0.5 teaspoon of salt.
Divide the seasoned vegetable mixture evenly among the 4 foil sheets, arranging them on top and around each pork chop.
Top each bundle with 1 teaspoon of butter for added richness.
Fold the foil sheets around the pork chops and vegetables to create sealed packets. Make sure they are tightly sealed but leave a little space inside for steam to circulate.
Transfer the packets to a baking sheet and place them in the preheated oven.
Bake for 35 minutes, or until the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) and the potatoes are fork-tender.
Carefully remove the bundles from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes.
To serve, carefully open each foil packet to avoid steam burns and plate the pork chops and vegetables as desired.
