Ingredients
  

Vegetables
  • 2 red and/or yellow peppers sliced
  • 1 cup corn kernels fresh or frozen
Pork Chops
  • 6 bone-in pork chops 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick
Seasonings and Sauces
  • 3 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 1/2 tsp. seafood seasoning such as Old Bay
  • 1 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp. black pepper
  • 1 tsp. smoked paprika
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons barbecue sauce
Coleslaw and Garnish
  • 1 14-ounce bag shredded coleslaw mix
  • 2 scallions thinly sliced
  • 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp. sugar

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking sheet
  • Rack
  • Bowl

Method
 

  1. Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven. Preheat to 450˚F. Toss the bell peppers and corn on a rimmed baking sheet with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon seafood seasoning, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Spread in a single layer and roast on the lower oven rack, stirring once, until tender and lightly browned, about 20 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, toss the pork chops with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a bowl, then sprinkle with the smoked paprika and the remaining 1 teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper.
  3. Set a rack on a rimmed baking sheet. Put the pork chops on the rack and brush with ¼ cup barbecue sauce. Roast until the pork is lightly browned and about halfway cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. (A thermometer inserted near the bone should read over 100˚). Switch the oven to broil. Top the chops with the remaining barbecue sauce.
