One pan meals will help you conquer the week. Try Sheet Pan Balsamic Chicken with Potatoes and Carrots, Sheet Pan Teriyaki Chicken and Pineapple Fried Rice, and Sheet Pan Lemon Herb Tuna Steaks and Potatoes. You know how I feel about one pan meals. And if you don’t, well let me just tell you that I’m basically borderline obsessed. They are MAGICAL. Honestly I don’t know how I ever survived weekly meal planning before they became so popular because these days I’m filling my weeknights with at least one if not two or three one pan meals each week. Whoever thought to cook a protein and a side dish on the same pan, I’ll love you forever.
When I was testing out this recipe, I found myself eating the potatoes straight off the pan at 10 in the morning because they are so SO good. And would you look at that beautiful pork chop right there?? ^^ Perfectly cooked through with a juicy center with a crispy golden breading on the outside with hints of garlic and ranch flavors. The real beauty of this recipe is that you use the same seasoning mix – dried ranch, salt, pepper, dried herbs, garlic powder, and paprika – for both the pork chop breading and the potatoes. Genius. There’s literally nothing I don’t love about this recipe. One pan, easy to make, lots of tasty flavors going on, and it’s done in about a half hour. Plus you get to smother your meat and potatoes in creamy ranch dressing – what’s not to love?! Where are my fellow ranch enthusiasts??? You get it.
