Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
• nonstick cooking spray
• 4 (5 ounce) boneless center-cut pork chops, 1/2-inch thick

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking dish with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.

Step 2

Combine Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, pepper, and garlic powder in a bowl.

Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven until pork chops are no longer pink in the center, 40 to 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Step 4

Rub pork chops with olive oil and dip into Parmesan mixture. Press mixture into pork chops to make sure they are well coated. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.
