Ingredients
- 5 pork chops (thick cut 1- 1½ inches (2½ - 3.8 cm)
- ½ cup bread crumbs
- 3 tablespoons freshly grated Parmigiano Romano (or Grana)
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1-2 tablespoons fresh Italian parsley chopped*
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil for drizzling
*You can also substitute with ½ -1 teaspoon dried parsley.
Instructions
- Pre heat oven to 375° (190°). Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
- On a large plate mix together the bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, salt and parsley, coat the pork chops very well with the crumb mixture one at a time, place on prepared baking sheet, sprinkle lightly with salt (pinch) and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
- Bake in pre heated oven for approximately 30-35 minutes**, halfway through baking turn the chops over, and sprinkle with any extra crumbs. In the last 5 minutes I raised the temperature to 390F/200C, for extra browning. Let the chops sit 3-5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
