Pork chops are a budget-friendly weeknight dinner option, but they can be pretty bland on their own. Our solution: Why not roll them in a “breading” of walnuts and parmesan? Paired with a nice salad, this Walnut Parmesan Pork Chops meal will quickly become a part of your weekly dinner rotation.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
2.
In a shallow dish or on a plate, mix the Walnut (3 tablespoon), Parmesan Cheese (3 tablespoon), Sea Salt (to taste), and Ground Black Pepper (to taste).
3.
In another shallow dish or wide bowl, lightly beat the Free Range Egg (1).
4.
One at a time, dip a Boneless Pork Chops (2) in the egg, let it drip for a few seconds, then coat it completely with the walnut and Parmesan mixture. Place it on the baking sheet and repeat with the other chop.
5.
Bake the chops for 10 minutes, then flip and continue baking until the middle of the chops reaches 145 degrees F (63 degrees C) in the center, about 10 minutes more.
6.
Let rest for a few minutes, then serve. Garnish with Italian Flat-Leaf Parsley (to taste) if desired.
Author's Notes
Wanna change it up a little? Mix ½ tsp of your favorite herb or spice into the “breading” for a pop of flavor! We loved adding dried rosemary.
