Ingredients

  • 4 bone-in pork chops (about 1 inch thick)
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

How to Make Crispy Breaded Pork Chops with Roasted Potatoes

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them out on the prepared baking sheet and roast for about 25-30 minutes, or until golden and tender, flipping halfway through.
  3. While the potatoes are roasting, set up a breading station. In one shallow dish, place the flour seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. In a second dish, whisk the eggs. In a third dish, add the breadcrumbs.
  4. Dip each pork chop first in the flour, shaking off the excess, then into the egg, and finally in the breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
  5. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Once hot, add the breaded pork chops. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 145°F). Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
  6. In the same skillet, add the heavy cream and stir, scraping up any browned bits. Cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened. Stir in the chopped parsley and season with salt and pepper.
  7. Serve the crispy breaded pork chops topped with the creamy sauce alongside the roasted potatoes.

Tips for the Best Results

  • Ensure the oil is hot enough before adding the pork chops to achieve a crispy coating.
  • Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes after cooking to retain their juices.
  • For extra flavor, marinate the pork chops in your favorite seasoning blend for a couple of hours before breading.

Easy Variations

  • Swap out the pork chops for chicken breasts or turkey cutlets for a lighter option.
  • Experiment with different herbs in the creamy sauce, such as thyme or rosemary.
  • Add cheese to the breadcrumbs for a cheesy crust.

What to Serve With It

  • A fresh garden salad with a tangy vinaigrette.
  • Steamed green beans or broccoli for a pop of color and nutrition.
  • A side of apple sauce for a sweet contrast to the savory chops.

Storage and Reheating

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the pork chops in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through, or use the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes.
