Breaded Bone-In Pork Chops

Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes

Equipment

  • Medium Bowl (3)
  • Sheet Pan with Wire Rack
  • Large Cast-Iron Skillet (10 inches)

Ingredients  

  • 2 bone-in center loin pork chops, 10 to 12 ounces each
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 eggs, whisked
  • 1 cup plain panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Place a wire rack on a foil-lined baking sheet and set aside.
  • Season pork chops all over with kosher salt and black pepper.
  • Set up a breading station with three shallow dishes. Combine flour, garlic powder, and onion powder in the first. Add whisked eggs to the second. Combine panko and Parmesan in the third.
  • Working one chop at a time, dredge in the seasoned flour and shake off any excess. Dip in egg, letting the excess drip off. Press firmly into the panko mixture to coat both sides. Transfer to the wire rack.
  • Heat butter and olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chops until golden, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Return the chops to the wire rack on the baking sheet.
  • Transfer to the oven and bake 12 to 15 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145°F. Rest 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

1. Use finely grated Parmesan, so it blends into the panko instead of clumping. We actually prefer the kind in the green can for this recipe since it disappears into the coating and adds flavor, without creating heavy patches that brown unevenly.
2. Nutritional information is only an estimate. The accuracy of the nutritional information for any recipe on this site is not guaranteed. The nutritional value applies only to the breaded pork chops and will vary based on the brand of ingredients used.
