You probably have many of the ingredients for this simple weeknight meal already on hand. Pick up a couple of pork chops and the fixings for a salad and dinner can be yours in just twenty minutes. This idea for CRISPY BREADED PORK CHOPS is really simple!
One of the fabulous things about this recipe is that you don’t need to fuss about your sides. This main comes together so fast, you can pull together a healthy salad while the chops bake and then, you’re ready to enjoy!
Here’s what you need to remember when you make these CRISPY BREADED PORK CHOPS at home:
Use bone-in chops of the same thickness, and in my opinion the thicker the better. I usually ask my butcher to prepare chops that are at least one-inch thick with just a sliver of fat running along the edge. That fat will crisp up during the baking, adding a delicious flavour.
I’ve made this recipe using everything from fancy gluten-free breadcrumbs and Japanese panko to store-bought and homemade versions that I made in a pinch. Mixing the breadcrumbs with fine-chopped fresh herbs and grated cheese adds a wonderful flavour.
Baking the breaded chops in a hot oven ensures that they come out with that all-important crispy-outside-juicy-inside finish. I also think this is the perfect occasion to use the convection feature on your oven, if you have it. Just make sure you elevate the breaded chops on a wire rack that sits within your baking sheet so that the hot air can circulate around the top and bottom of the chops.
Weeknight dinner plans need not be a complicated affair especially when you serve something especially delicious like these CRISPY BREADED PORK CHOPS. Enjoy!
