- Roast Pork Chops with Artichokes and Potatoes
This is a very simple recipe that requires a couple of steps. However, you will be cooking everyone in one skillet.
Using the oven to finish the cooking will allow the chops to maintain their juices internally and finish cooking the potatoes.
Shall we dive into the recipe?
Ingredients needed to make this wonderful recipe of artichoke pork chops
Coriander powder – gives it that beautiful taste to the pork chops
Bone-in Pork chops – super tender and always tasty. The meat around the bone is tender and keeps the chops moist.
Frozen artichoke hearts -very convenient as no cleaning is needed. Add a great layer of flavor to the chops.
Baby new potatoes – make this meal complete and mixed with the artichokes, and an excellent result happens. Earthy and rich. Ensure they are all the same size for even cooking.
Olive oil – to cook the chops in
Garlic – Add that wonderful layer of flavor
Chicken stock – excellent at keeping this wonderful dish moist and assists with the potatoes cooking. You can substitute it with vegetable stock if you wish.
Thyme – marries beautifully with potatoes and pork.
White balsamic vinegar – brings out the acidity needed for this dish.
Unsalted butter – I always use unsalted butter in my cooking or baking to control the amount of sodium. Salted butter not only adds too much salt to your dish, but it also changes the flavor.
Salt and pepper – seasoning
Cooking tips and step-by-step instructions to make this fantastic pork chops recipe
This recipe is very straightforward. As with all my recipes, I suggest having all your ingredients ready before cooking.
Leave the pork chops out at room temperature so it will take less time to cook, but your chops will sear better.
- Start by positioning the rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400F.
- Have your chops fat band side cut as per the instructions below on Pro Tips, and season generously with salt and pepper.
I used my Lodge large skillet as it distributes the heat beautifully and can go from stove to oven to table without worries.
- Heat the oil over medium-high heat and sear the chops while basting them as you cook along. Doing this will keep the top warm and slightly cook it. Cook both sides and turn with cooking tongs; you do not want to pierce the meat and release the internal juices. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the artichokes and potatoes. Stir occasionally until a nice golden color is formed. Add the garlic and cook for a few seconds.
- Add the chicken broth to the pan and scrape any bits while cooking the potatoes until tender.
- Return the chops to the skillet, add the thyme, and place them in the hot oven for five to six minutes to finish cooking uniformly.
- Once done, remove the skillet from the oven. Remove the chops and vegetables and place them on a serving dish. The extra liquid will remain in the skillet.
- Add the balsamic vinegar and scrape up any bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Add the remaining chicken stock and bring it to a boil. Remove the thyme, add the butter and whisk.
Enjoy!
Pro Tips
- I make a couple of vertical incisions on the fat band to ensure your pork chops will not curl up while cooking. This will prevent the chop from curling and cause one section to be overcooked while the curled part is not.
- Do not slice too deep to cut through the meat.
I have two in this size: a larger one and a couple of small ones. They are perfect for so many cooking applications.
Storage and reheating
I have seldom had leftovers for this recipe, as we seem to devour it each time.
However, I placed them in an airtight glass container when we did. The chops will be stored for up to two days.
Remember that the potatoes do not store well and become dry after two days.
To reheat:
Bring it back to room temperature and place it in a warm oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until the desired warmth is reached.

- Add the artichokes and potatoes to the pan. Stirring occasionally, until browned on spots, cook for about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook stirring for a few seconds. Add 1 ½ cup of the chicken broth to the pan and scrape any browned bits.Cook until the potatoes are tender, 3 to 5 minutes (depending of the potatoes size)Return the chops back to the pan, add the thyme and place in the hot oven for about 5 to 6 minutes.
- Leave the thyme springs in the pan, transfer the chops and vegetables to a plate and cover with aluminum foil. Return the skillet to the stovetop over medium heat and reduce the liquid in the pan until almost completely evaporated, 2 minutes. Add the vinegar, stirring to scrape up any bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the remaining 1 cup of chicken broth and bring to a boil. Remove the thyme springs and whisk in the butter.
- Cook to reduce slightly, about 2 minutes and season to taste with salt and pepper. Return the vegetables to the pan. Add the pork chops and spoon some sauce over the top.

Notes
- I make a couple of vertical incisions on the fat band to ensure your pork chops will not curl up while cooking. This will prevent the chop from curling and cause one section to be overcooked while the curled part is not.
