Parmesan Mayo Pork Chops

J and I have always liked pork chops. Particularly the shake n’ bake variety! 😉

But in our effort to eat less processed crap, we have forgone the boxed stuff and created our own!

This recipe is really J’s fault! He volunteered to bake the pork chops one day and said “just tell me what to do.” So I told him mix a little bread crumb, a little parm, maybe some parsley….then he went to work.

His pork chops were so juicy and flavorful! We even had them again the next week! His secret?

Mayo!

Yep, that’s right. And it’s not gross! He saw a Mayo commercial where they put Mayo on chicken, so he tried it on the chops. And it is so good!

Here’s how he did it!

Ingredients   Print this recipe!

Boneless pork chops
breadcrumbs
grated Parmesan cheese (or Parmesan blend)
Mayonnaise (REAL mayo! Not Salad Dressing)
Dried Parsley (or fresh)
S&P

Directions

First rinse off your pork chops and pat dry. Preheat your oven to 425°.
In a shallow bowl, combine even amounts of bread crumb and parmesan cheese. (About 1/4 C. each for 2 chops) Then add about a tablespoon of dried parsley, and salt and pepper. (Just eye ball it here. Use more or less to your taste. This is not an exact science!)
Mix it all up.
Spoon some mayo onto a plate and apply a thin coating to the pork chop. Please don’t just pull from your jar of mayo. Going back and forth from the pork to the jar will contaminate your whole jar! Just spoon some on a plate and use that. Toss the leftover. Let’s keep it clean!
Once the pork is covered in a light layer of mayo, you can toss it in the crumb mixture.

Flip it over and make sure it’s all coated well. Repeat with all chops.

Place chops on a parchment lined baking sheet and cook at 425° 20-30 minutes, until an internal temperature of 145° is reached.

Let sit about 5 minutes before eating.

Tender, juicy, and so flavorful! This is a new favorite! Enjoy!
