Best Pork Chop Recipe

This recipe is an oldie and a goodie! One of the first recipes I put up on this site and a recipe that's still in our weekly rotation, even after all of these years.

Maybe it's the crunchy parmesan outside crust, the hint of garlic blended with the cheese or the juicy pork chop itself, this recipe will not disappoint.

Bone In Pork Chop Recipes

It's true you can easily use this recipe with both bone in and boneless pork chops. I always do. I buy what is on sale and I try and keep my freezers as full as possible.

Garlic Parmesan Crusted Pork Chops

I have always loved the way garlic and parmesan taste together and this recipe is no exception. Both the garlic and parmesan taste terrific with pork.

The crunchy or crispy coating on these garlic parmesan crusted pork chops will get you hooked, every time.

Baked Boneless Pork Chop Recipes

I tend to try and buy boneless pork chops whenever possible. I understand that bones add more flavor but I have always preferred all of my meat boneless, as far back as I can remember.

My mother is the exact same way which is probably why I am the way I am. Growing up she usually bought meat without bones too so I am not as used to it.

This has always made Ken, my husband, wonder what was wrong with me when bones add so much flavor to the meat itself. Now he doesn't say anything at all about it, he just debones whatever he has made.

Just for me.

I am so grateful he does it.

Baked Panko Pork Chops

These pork chops include panko crumbs in the recipe but feel free to add bread or cornflake crumbs if you prefer them. In fact any crumbs will do!

Once we started using panko crumbs we made the switch from regular bread crumbs. Especially with this baked panko pork chops recipe.

Now I actually prefer using panko with so many things. I still can't believe it myself.

How to make Crunchy Parmesan Pork Chops

Combine the panko, garlic powder and parmesan cheese and place the mixture on a plate.

Spread the flour and garlic powder onto a separate plate.

In a third shallow dish, whisk the eggs, Dijon, and thyme together.

Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.

Working with one chop at a time, coat chop with flour, then into the egg mixture, and finally, coat with the crumbs, pressing on them to make them stick to the pork chop.

Place the breaded pork chops on the prepared wire rack.

Bake the pork chops for about 30 minutes.

Depending on their size, after 30 minutes, reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees and bake until the chops register 145 degrees. This could take up to another 20 minutes.

Let the chops rest on the rack for 5 minutes and then serve.

Enjoy!
