Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Step 2
Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 3
Place the pork chops between two pieces of plastic wrap.
Step 4
Very gently pound the covered pork chops using a rolling pin or the flat side of a meat mallet. The purpose is not to flatten them much but rather to tenderize them, so 4-5 gentle smacks will do.
Step 5
Rub the tenderized pork chops with the oil and the mustard.
Step 6
In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Step 7
Rub the seasoning mixture all over the pork chops.
Step 8
Place the chops on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 9
Bake the coated pork chops until an instant thermometer inserted into the center reads 145 degrees F, about 12-15 minutes, or depending on the thickness, about 6 minutes per 1/2 inch of thickness.
Step 10
Turn the oven to broil.
Step 11
Broil the baked pork chops until browned, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 12
Transfer the baked pork chops out of the oven and allow them to rest for 5 minutes.
Step 13
Serve.
