Leaving aside the sworn vegetarians and vegans, there is no one else who does not love juicy oven-baked pork chops. Oven-baked pork chops are an integral part of the menu and every cook has more than one or two recipes for them.
Cooking tender pork chops is not difficult and even novice cooks can handle this task. The most important thing for success is to choose quality meat and be careful not to overcook it.
The most suitable meat for juicy pork chops is pork neck, which is not too fatty or too dry, and with proper culinary processing it becomes extremely tender and appetizing. Of course, you can also bake pork cutlet, which is preferred by those who are careful not to ruin their figure.
The time for baking the pork chops in the oven depends on the type of meat you are cooking, its weight and the oven itself. The rule is that about 0.7 - 1 kg of pork chops are baked for about 90 minutes in a preheated oven at 180°C under aluminum foil. Shortly before the end of baking, it is advisable to remove it to brown the meat.
