Irresistibly Crispy Baked Parmesan Pork Chops for a Flavorful Feast

Learn how to make delicious Crispy Baked Parmesan Pork Chops. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Gathering your ingredients is as simple as a quick pantry check. Here’s what you’ll need:

  • 4 boneless pork chops, about 1 inch thick
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs (panko for extra crunch)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

If you’re out of panko breadcrumbs, don’t worry! Regular breadcrumbs will do the trick. And if you have fresh herbs on hand, feel free to chop them up for a more vibrant flavor. Remember, home cooking is all about making it work with what you’ve got.

Instructions

Now, let’s get to the fun part—cooking! Follow these simple steps to bring this dish to life:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a shallow dish, combine the Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian herbs, salt, and pepper.
  3. In another bowl, beat the eggs and stir in the olive oil.
  4. Dip each pork chop into the egg mixture, ensuring it’s fully coated, then press it firmly into the breadcrumb mixture, coating both sides well.
  5. Place the breaded pork chops on the prepared baking sheet. I like to add a little extra sprinkle of Parmesan on top for good measure.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the pork chops are golden brown and have reached an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
  7. Let them rest for a few minutes before serving—this helps keep them juicy!

Cooking with kids? Let them help with dipping the chops in the egg and breadcrumb mixtures. It’s a fun way to get them involved and create lasting memories in the kitchen.
