Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless pork chops
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs (preferably panko)
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 pieces Eggs, beaten
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray it with cooking spray.
In a shallow bowl, combine the Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly.
In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs until well combined.
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels. Dip each pork chop into the beaten eggs, coating both sides, and then press them into the Parmesan breadcrumb mixture, ensuring even coverage on all sides.
Place the coated pork chops on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle each pork chop lightly with olive oil to help achieve a crispy crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pork chops are golden brown and reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) when checked with a meat thermometer.
Remove from the oven and let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes. Enjoy!
