Ingredients

• 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
• 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 3 cups panko breadcrumbs
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.

Step 2

Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with salt and black pepper. Set aside.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine Dijon mustard with one tablespoon of olive oil. Mix well and spread a thin layer of the mixture evenly over the top of each pork chop.

Step 4

In another mixing bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, fresh parsley, the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, and melted butter. Stir until the breadcrumbs are evenly moistened.

Step 5

Place the pork chops on the prepared baking sheet. Press a generous amount of the breadcrumb mixture onto the mustard-coated side of each pork chop, patting gently to help the crumbs adhere.

Step 6

Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake the pork chops for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) when checked with a meat thermometer and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.

Step 7

Remove the pork chops from the oven and let them rest for 3-5 minutes before serving.

Step 8

Serve warm, garnished with extra fresh parsley if desired. Pair with roasted vegetables or a side salad for a complete meal.
