Remove the pork from the refrigerator 20 minutes before cooking and set the package on your countertop. Bringing the steaks to room temperature helps them to bake evenly.
Preheat oven to 400ºF.
Arrange the meat in a single layer inside of a shallow, oven-safe baking dish, at least 1/2-inch apart. Using a basting brush, apply olive oil to the top of each steak; Sprinkle each with 1/4 teaspoon of all-purpose seasoning.
Transfer the baking dish to the center rack of your oven. Bake at 400°F for 12 minutes, then use an instant-read digital thermometer to check the internal temperature of the pork. Insert the probe into the thickest portion of the meat, being careful not to let it touch any bones.Pork steak is done after about 20 minutes of cook time, when the internal temperature reaches 145ºF.
Transfer steaks to a serving platter and tent the platter with aluminum foil. Let the meat rest for 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
This oven-baked pork recipe comes with an easy marinated pork chops. While using it is optional, we highly recommend it because it will tenderize the meat and add incredible flavor!
Recipe Variations:
Include some veggies. You can also roast vegetables at the same time in the same baking dish. A great combination is bite-sized chunks of potatoes, carrots, and onions.
Use other flavors. Season the meat with chili powder or smoked paprika for a Tex-Mex or Spanish flair.
Storing Instructions:
Refrigerate leftovers: Any leftovers will be kept in the refrigerator for up to four days. Let the meat cool to room temperature, then transfer it to an airtight container or food storage bag.
