How to Make Parmesan Crusted Pork Chops

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Place pork chops between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound to 1/2-inch thickness using a meat mallet.
  3. In a shallow dish, whisk together eggs and 1 tablespoon of water.
  4. In a separate shallow dish, combine grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  5. Dip each pork chop in the egg mixture, then dredge in the Parmesan breadcrumb mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
  6. Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side, until lightly browned.
  7. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
  8. Let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley (optional).
