Ingredients
4 boneless pork chops (about 1 inch thick)
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup breadcrumbs (Panko or Italian-style)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 large eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons olive oil (optional, for added moisture)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat and Prepare
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and season both sides lightly with salt and pepper.
Step 2: Set Up the Coating Station
In a shallow bowl, beat the eggs until smooth.
In a separate shallow bowl, mix together the grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, paprika, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Step 3: Coat the Pork Chops
Dip each pork chop into the beaten eggs, ensuring it’s fully coated. Let any excess drip off.
Press the pork chop into the Parmesan-breadcrumb mixture, pressing firmly to adhere the coating evenly on both sides. Place the coated pork chops on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 4: Add Moisture (Optional)
