Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bone-in pork chops (1-inch thick)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1 cups Panko breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cups Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon Dried Italian seasoning
- Olive oil spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls. In the first bowl, add the flour. In the second bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. In the third bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning.
Dredge each pork chop in the flour, shaking off any excess. Next, dip it into the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated. Finally, press it firmly into the breadcrumb mixture, coating it evenly on all sides. Repeat for all pork chops.
Place the breaded pork chops onto the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the tops with olive oil to enhance crispiness during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork chops reaches 145°F (63°C) and the coating is golden brown and crisp.
Remove the pork chops from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. This helps retain their juices.
Serve warm alongside your favorite side dishes, such as mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables. Enjoy!
