I’ve been really enjoying the trend of one-pan and sheet-pan meals lately. They make dinner prep a breeze and clean-up so much easier! This ranch pork and potatoes sheet pan dinner is a perfect example. I love ranch flavor, so I decided to try it with some pork chops we had on hand. I also used up some leftover potatoes from the fridge. The result? A delicious ranch pork and potatoes recipe! I made it while my mom was visiting, and both she and the kids loved it, making it a definite winner for our family!

Since the boys are still little, we often have leftovers when we make a full meal. This reheated very well the next day for lunch. A quick dinner becomes an easy lunch. 

We ate the pork and potatoes as they are with no extra garnish, it has so much flavor. Of course, the boys, being kids, wanted ketchup for it. But they want ketchup for almost everything they eat. We talked about maybe adding some broccoli or baby carrots to the pan next time we make this as well so we have some vegetables. Or we could also start with a salad and use ranch dressing so it would all have the same flavor and make it a complete meal. 

I always use thin-cut, boneless pork chops for almost any recipe I make with pork. I find it easiest because they cook faster since they are thin. Then I don’t have to deal with the bones later after everything has cooked. If you decide to use bone-in pork chops, adjust the cooking time to make sure that the pork is cooked through all the way since it will probably take longer.

Serving Suggestions & Tips

  • One ranch seasoning mix packet is equivalent to one ounce of the ranch seasoning. You can purchase a single ranch packet or buy it in a larger quantity if you use it often.
  • For easy cleanup, line the pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil. 
  • Garnish the pork and potatoes with a little bit of fresh parsley, garlic powder, more ranch mix, or onion powder.
  • Serve this easy dinner with a side salad or other cooked vegetables such as broccoli or baby carrots. 
  • You can use other types of potatoes, but we prefer the taste of baby red potatoes. If you want crispy potatoes, cut them even smaller so they cook faster. 
  • Use ranch dressing mix from the grocery store or make your own at home. 
  • Easy sheet pan dinners can usually be changed to fit your tastes. Try this with juicy chicken breasts instead of tender pork chops if you prefer. 
  • Instead of covering the meat and potatoes with oil and the seasoning, you could mix them in a large bowl. This does create an extra dish to clean, though. 

Ranch Pork and Potatoes Step by Step

Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb baby potatoes
  • 1 lb pork chops (boneless)
  • 3-4 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 oz ranch seasoning
  • 1 tbsp oregano
  • 2 tsp pepper

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 400F. Cut the potatoes into bite-sized chunks.

Place pork chops on one side of a large sheet pan, and the potatoes on the other in a single layer.

Cover the potatoes and boneless chops with oil, then flip and do the same on the other side. They don’t need a whole lot of oil, just a small layer to help hold the seasonings on everything.

Pour half of the ranch seasoning packet, and any other seasonings you want, on everything. Then flip and do the same for the other side. I also put a bit of oregano and pepper on mine.

Take the entire pan, and put it in the preheated oven. Bake for about 30-40 minutes until the pork is cooked through to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit and the potatoes are tender.

Ranch Pork and Potatoes Leftovers

Storage: Let the easy meal cool to room temperature then store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. 

​Reheating: A great way to reheat this is in the air fryer or toaster oven. That will keep it crispy rather than letting the potatoes get soggy in the microwave. If you have to use the microwave, cut the pork up first so it warms more quickly.

    Ooooh, I just love sheet pan meals. I love how it’s so easy to throw everything on one pan, put it into the oven, and dinner is ready. And ofcourse, the ranch seasoning mix is so much yum!!

  2. How tasty is this! I used to eat a lot of pork chops when I was a kid, and only started eating them again when I met my husband, he loves pork chops, and so do I 🙂 Love that the ingredients are usually found on our kitchen as well!

  3. I love potatoes cooked anyway. The use of one dish in this cooking process is a nice perk. We eat pork here sometimes so I wouldn’t mind trying to cook it like this next time.

  4. 5 stars
    This really looks amazing. I would love to try it out sometime. I can see why you wouldn’t need to add anything else to it. I wouldn’t have thought to use ranch packets as a seasoning but I can see why it would taste good. I will have to try this out.

  5. Sheet pan meals are the BEST MEALS always!! First off, I just love all foods ROASTED but secondly, ONE PAN = easy clean up! To take it a step further too… I love lining my sheet pan with TIN FOIL 😉
