Description
Simple recipe for pork chops coated in Parmesan cheese and pan-fried until golden brown.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 bone-in pork chops (about 1 inch thick)
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
Instructions
- Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels.
- In a shallow dish, mix the flour, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- In a second shallow dish, place the beaten eggs.
- In a third shallow dish, place the grated Parmesan cheese.
- Dredge each pork chop in the flour mixture, shaking off excess.
- Dip the floured chop into the egg, letting excess drip off.
- Press the chop firmly into the Parmesan cheese to coat both sides.
- Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Carefully place the crusted chops in the hot skillet.
- Cook for 4 to 6 minutes per side, until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit and the crust is golden brown.
- Remove chops from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
- You can substitute panko breadcrumbs for half of the Parmesan cheese for extra crunch.
- Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness to prevent overcooking.
