Parmesan Crusted Pork Chops

Author: sweetteaandcornbread.net

Ingredients

  • 6-9 Medium size Pork Chops
  • 2 cups Italian bread crumbs
  • 1 cup Parmesan cheese
  • 1 envelope Italian dressing mix
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 cup Ranch dressing (you can use a good bottled Ranch or I like to make my own with a mix)
  • a pinch of black pepper
  • a pinch of seasoned salt

Instructions

  • Pour a cup of the ranch dressing over the pork.
  • Make sure all of the meat is covered in the dressing.  Let this sit and marinade while you prepare the crumb coating.
  • Mix the Italian bread crumbs, the Italian dressing, and the Parmesan cheese in a Ziploc bag.  Place about 2 or 3 chops at a time in the bag and seal.  Toss it around to coat on all sides well.  Place foil on a baking sheet and spray well with baking spray.  I like to use Reynolds Wrap non-stick foil.  It browns the crust so well.  Invest in a roll of this foil for recipes like this…the results are worth it.  When you have all of the chops coated sprinkle with a little black pepper and seasoned salt, place in a preheated oven at 375 degrees for 45 minutes.
  • Don't try to turn the chops over during the baking or you will lose some of your coating.  If you use the baking spray and the non-stick foil they should just slide right up when you get ready to serve.

Notes

Wife and I found ourselves in New Jersey sometime back and my younger brother sent us back down south with a unopened box of this mix. He advised we would love it, and he was correct. Most likely this is a seasonal item, but I may have to go online to find it in our neck of the woods.
