Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons whipping cream
• 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
• nonstick cooking spray
• 1 (5 ounce) bone-in, center-cut pork chop
• 0.75 cup water
• 0.25 cup garlic- and herb-seasoned panko bread crumbs
• 0.5 (6 ounce) package cheddar-broccoli rice mix (such as Knorr®)

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Spray a 6x8-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.

Step 2

Coat one side of the pork chop with mayonnaise and press panko into the mayonnaise.

Step 3

Pour rice mix into the prepared casserole dish. Add water and cream; stir to combine. Place pork chop, coated-side up, into the dish and top with Parmesan cheese.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
