Ingredients

• 4 pieces Boneless pork chops
• 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
• 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 0.5 cup Flour
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Milk
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 4 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
• 1 tablespoon Fresh dill
• 1 tablespoon Fresh chives
• 1 clove Garlic (minced)
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt (for dressing)
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper (for dressing)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper.

Step 3

Prepare three separate shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs combined with milk, and one with a mixture of panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Dip each pork chop into the flour, ensuring it is fully coated. Shake off any excess flour, then dip it into the egg mixture. Finally, press the chop firmly into the panko mixture, coating it evenly on both sides.

Step 5

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown. Add more olive oil if needed.

Step 6

Transfer the seared pork chops onto the prepared baking sheet. Finish cooking in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 7

While the pork chops are baking, prepare the creamy herb dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon juice, parsley, dill, chives, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.

Step 8

Serve the pork chops hot with a generous drizzle of creamy herb dressing on top or on the side for dipping. Garnish with extra herbs if desired.
