Cooking Pork Chops: Tips & Inspiration

Pork Chop Recipes FAQ

How long do I cook pork chops in the oven?

Pork chops usually take around 20–25 minutes in a preheated oven at 200°C (fan-forced 180°C), depending on their thickness. Always check that they reach a safe internal temperature before serving.

What should I serve with pork chops?

Pork chops pair beautifully with sides like creamy mash, roast veggies, apple sauce, sautéed greens or a crisp salad for a balanced Aussie-style meal.

How long do I pan fry pork chops?

Pan-fry pork chops for around 3–5 minutes per side over medium–high heat, depending on thickness, until golden brown and cooked through.

What is the best method to cook pork chops?

It depends on your preference — baking, pan-frying and grilling all work well. Baking ensures even cooking, pan-frying gives a golden crust, and grilling adds smoky BBQ flavour.

How do I cook pork chops so they don’t dry out?

To keep pork chops juicy, don’t overcook them. Sear quickly over high heat, then finish in the oven or cover while baking to retain moisture.

Should you cook pork chops fast or slow?

Thinner chops are best cooked fast over medium–high heat for juiciness, while thicker cuts benefit from slower, gentler cooking for tenderness.

Can pork chops be pink?

Yes, pork chops can have a slight blush of pink in the centre as long as they reach a safe internal temperature and are rested before serving.
