Ingredients

  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs if you prefer, you can use regular breadcrumbs
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon chili powder
  • 4 bone-in pork chops about 1 inch thick
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • non-stick cooking spray

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F degrees and place a wire rack on a baking sheet. This will help the air circulate around the pork chops for even cooking.
  • In a large, shallow bowl or a plastic bag, combine all the ingredients for the Shake and Bake coating: breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to distribute the seasonings evenly.
  • If your pork chops have excess fat around the edges, you may trim them for a leaner result.
  • Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture. This will help the coating adhere better.
  • Brush the pork chops with olive oil.
  • One at a time, place each pork chop in the bowl or bag with the Shake and Bake mixture. Press the coating onto the pork chop, making sure it adheres well.
  • Place the coated pork chops on the wire rack on the baking sheet. Make sure there is space between each chop to allow for even cooking.
  • Lightly spray the tops of the pork chops with cooking spray. This will help them become golden and crispy.
  • Bake the pork chops in the preheated oven for about 18-22 minutes, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F for medium doneness.*
  • Once cooked, let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to be redistributed and results in a juicier chop!

Notes

*Cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of your pork chops, so it's best to use a meat thermometer to check for doneness.
Serve your delicious Shake and Bake Pork Chops with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, steamed vegetables, or a fresh salad. Enjoy!
