Parmesan Baked Pork Chops are the perfect combination of crispy, juicy, and flavorful. With a golden Parmesan and breadcrumb crust infused with herbs and spices, these oven-baked chops deliver restaurant-quality taste right from your kitchen. The secret lies in the coating — a savory mix of Parmesan cheese and seasonings that turns perfectly crisp as it bakes, sealing in all the natural juices of the pork.
This recipe is a wonderful choice for a quick weeknight dinner or an impressive yet easy meal for guests. It requires minimal prep and uses simple pantry staples, yet the result is irresistibly delicious. The pork chops stay tender on the inside while the coating forms a flavorful crust with just the right amount of crunch.
Paired with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad, these baked pork chops make a satisfying and well-balanced meal. Best of all, they’re baked — not fried — making them a healthier alternative without sacrificing taste or texture.
