Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces Pork Chops (bone-in or boneless)
  • 1 cup Parmesan Cheese (grated)
  • 2 cloves Garlic (freshly minced)
  • 2 teaspoons Dried Herbs (e.g., Italian seasoning)
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil (can substitute with avocado oil)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix the grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, and dried herbs.
  3. Brush the pork chops with olive oil on both sides.
  4. Coat the pork chops in the Parmesan mixture, pressing gently to stick.
  5. Place the coated pork chops on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Cooking
  1. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pork chops are golden brown and cooked through.
  2. Check that the internal temperature of the pork chops reaches 145°F (63°C).
  3. Remove from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

For extra crunch, mix in some breadcrumbs with the Parmesan. Marinating the pork chops in olive oil and garlic before coating adds flavor. Always check the internal temperature with a meat thermometer.
