Ingredients:
- Boneless pork chops, approximately 1-inch thick
- Grated Parmesan cheese
- Italian breadcrumbs
- Garlic powder
- Onion powder
- Salt
- Black pepper
- Eggs
- Flour
- Vegetable oil
- Butter
Recipe Tips
Use freshly grated parmesan if possible, but pre-grated works fine as a substitution.
Vegetable oil is used in place of olive oil due to the low smoke point to prevent the pork chops from burning.
Feel free to use regular breadcrumbs and add 1 tablespoon of Italian seasoning as a substitute for Italian breadcrumbs.
In a shallow dish, whisk together the Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion pepper, powder, and salt.
In another shallow dish, vigorously whisk the eggs. Lastly, add the flour to a separate dish.
Create a line-up of flour, eggs, and then breadcrumbs. Cover the first pork chop in a good amount of flour on both sides (you should not see most of the pink anymore).
Then, dip in the eggs until fully covered. After that, press it into the breadcrumbs on both sides. Shake off excess and set aside on a wire rack or plate.
Repeat the process for the remaining pork chops. Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan on medium heat until hot but not quite smoking.
Add the butter and once it is melted, add the pork chops and cook on each side for 3-5 minutes
