Ingredients

  • 4-5 boneless pork chops, ½ inch thick
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 tablespoon milk
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • ¾ cup Italian bread crumbs
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper

Instructions

  • Make egg wash by blending together milk and eggs. On a large rimmed plate or shallow and wide bowl, mix the Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, salt and pepper.
  • Dredge pork chops into bread crumb mixture, then milk mixture and again in bread crumb mixture. Place on non-stick baking sheet (i.e. copper) or use silicone mat.
  • Pre-heat oven to 350 F. Allow the pork chops to rest while the oven is heating.  Breading sticks better when it has 15-30 minutes to rest before baking. This step is not necessary but highly recommended for a nice, crispy crust.
  • Pork should reach an internal temp of 145 degrees. Allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

How long to bake? The time depends on the thickness and type. The instructions are based around slightly more than ½ inch thick oven baked boneless. 
Pork needs to be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees F. A good guideline is 8 minutes per side per half inch of meat.
If you prefer to sear  before baking, reduce the cook time to 4 minutes each side. If you use bone in, you may need to add a few minutes to the cooking time.   
Use a non-stick cookie sheet, like a copper baking sheet or a silicone mat. Cooking sprays and oils tend to soak up into the crust and don't prevent sticking.
