Ingredients

• cooking spray
• 1 pinch Cajun seasoning, or to taste
• 1 (8 ounce) package panko bread crumbs
• 6 (1-inch thick) bone-in pork chops, at room temperature
• 0.5 cup mayonnaise, or as needed

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Rinse pork chops and pat dry with paper towels.

Step 2

Mix mayonnaise and Cajun seasoning together in a bowl. Spread bread crumbs out on a large plate.

Step 3

Brush mayonnaise mixture over pork chops, then gently press chops into bread crumbs to coat, shaking off any excess crumbs. Arrange breaded chops in the prepared baking dish.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until pork is slightly pink in the center, about 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Remove from the oven and loosely cover with aluminum foil; let rest for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
