Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces bone-in pork chops (1 inch thick)
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 0.333 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs, beaten
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease it lightly with olive oil.
In a shallow bowl, mix the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper.
Prepare three separate bowls for breading: one with the flour, one with the beaten eggs, and one with the breadcrumb mixture.
Rub each pork chop lightly with Dijon mustard, ensuring it is evenly coated.
Dredge each pork chop in the flour, shaking off any excess.
Dip the floured pork chop into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess egg to drip off.
Press the pork chop into the breadcrumb mixture, coating both sides evenly.
Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the breaded pork chops and sear each side for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven or move the pork chops to the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork chops reaches 145°F (63°C).
Remove the pork chops from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving to ensure they remain juicy.
Serve alongside your favorite side dishes, such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes, and enjoy!
