Ingredients
  

Sheet-Pan Honey-Balsamic Glaze and Pork
  • 4 bone-in pork chops 1 inch thick
  • 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 0.25 salt to taste
  • 0.25 pepper to taste
Sheet-Pan Roasted Vegetables
  • 2 cup Brussels sprouts halved
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 0.25 salt to taste
  • 0.25 pepper to taste

Equipment

  • 1 sheet pan

Method
 

Prep and glaze
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F and position a rack in the middle so the glaze caramelizes evenly.
  2. Whisk balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, and 1 tablespoon olive oil until smooth, thick, and glossy.
Roast vegetables first
  1. Toss Brussels sprouts and cherry tomatoes with 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread evenly on a large sheet pan.
  2. Roast for 10 minutes at 400°F until the vegetables begin to blister and edges look slightly browned.
Glaze and finish pork
  1. Season pork chops with salt and pepper, push the vegetables to the edges, and nestle pork chops in the center.
  2. Brush glaze generously over the pork chops and drizzle any extra over the vegetables for sticky caramelization.
  3. Roast 18–22 minutes at 400°F until the pork reaches 145°F and the glaze turns deep mahogany on the sheet pan.
  4. Broil 2 minutes for extra color, watching closely so the top of the glaze darkens without burning.

Notes

For the juiciest chops, pull them at 145°F and rest them on the sheet pan 3–5 minutes before serving; the carryover helps finish the center while keeping the glaze glossy. Refrigerate leftovers in a sealed container up to 3 days; reheat at 375°F until warmed through. Freezing is not recommended because the vegetables can soften. Dietary swap: use maple syrup in place of honey for a similar sweetness and caramel-brown finish.
