Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Crispy Baked Pork Chops.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C), setting the stage for a delicious meal.
Step 2
In a shallow bowl, whisk together some eggs, garlic powder, and onion powder until everything is beautifully blended.
Step 3
In another shallow bowl, pour in the crushed saltine crackers, creating a crunchy coating for your pork chops.
Step 4
Now, take each pork chop and dip it into the egg mixture, letting any excess drip off before pressing it firmly into the cracker crumbs.
Step 5
This step is key to achieving that perfect crispy texture! Next, heat a generous amount of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 6
Once the oil is shimmering, gently add the breaded pork chops to the skillet.
Step 7
Fry them for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until they turn a lovely golden brown.
Step 8
This is where the magic happens! After browning, transfer the pork chops to a baking sheet, ready for their final touch.
Step 9
Pop them into the preheated oven and let them bake for around 45 minutes.
Step 10
You’ll know they’re done when they’re no longer pink in the center, and an instant-read thermometer reads 145°F (63°C) when inserted into the thickest part of the chop.
Step 11
Enjoy the delightful aroma filling your kitchen as you await this mouthwatering dish!.
