Parmesan Crusted Pork Chops
Description
This recipe involves seasoning pork loin chops with kosher salt, coarse black pepper, and olive oil to enhance flavor and aid crust adhesion. The pork is then pressed into a combination of Parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs to create a textured crust that crisps during baking in the oven at 350 degrees. Flipping halfway through ensures even cooking and browning on both sides.
The resulting pork chops have a savory, cheesy crust with a tender and juicy interior. The crunch and saltiness from the Parmesan crust complement the mild pork, creating a balanced main dish. This straightforward preparation produces a satisfying texture contrast without pan frying.
Ingredients
- 6 pork loin chops 3/4 to 1 inch thick, boneless
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper coarse ground
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup Parmesan Cheese grated
- 1 cup bread crumbs
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Season the pork with salt, pepper and olive oil, rubbing it on until evenly covered.
- Mix the Parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs in a medium bowl before pressing the pork into the mixture until well covered before adding it to a baking pan and cooking for 30-35 minutes, flipping them over halfway through cooking.
