🥘Ingredients

For the Pork Chops

4 boneless pork chops about 1 inch thick
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large egg

👨‍🍳Directions

1Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2In a shallow bowl, mix together the parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
3In another shallow bowl, whisk the egg.
4Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel. Dip each pork chop into the egg, letting any excess drip off, then coat it in the parmesan mixture. Press the coating on so it sticks.
5Place the coated pork chops on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle or brush the tops with olive oil.
6Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the pork chops are cooked through and the coating is golden brown. Let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions About Baked Parmesan Pork Chops

Yes you can. Bone in pork chops work great too. Just make sure they are about the same thickness so they cook evenly. You might need to add a few minutes to the bake time.

The key is to not overcook them. Use a meat thermometer and take them out when they reach 145 degrees F internally. Letting them rest for a few minutes also helps keep them juicy.

Absolutely. Just use gluten free breadcrumbs in place of the seasoned breadcrumbs. Everything else in the recipe is naturally gluten free.

I like to serve them with a side of roasted vegetables or a simple salad. Mashed potatoes or rice are also great options.

You can coat the pork chops and keep them in the fridge for a few hours before baking. Just cover them and bake when you are ready. Do not leave them out at room temperature.
