Parmesan-garlic Italian pork chops are a delicious and savory dish perfect for a family dinner or a special occasion. This recipe offers a delightful combination of tender pork chops infused with the rich flavors of parmesan cheese, garlic, and herbs, creating a mouth-watering experience for anyone who tries them.

Ingredients:

3 eggs
190g
3 tbsp milk (3.25% fat)
44g
1.50 cups bread crumbs
180g
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
50g
1 tbsp dried parsley
1.60g
2 tbsp olive oil
27g
4 garlic cloves
12g
10 oz pork fillet
280g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Egg Wash:
- In a shallow bowl, beat the 3 eggs together.
- Add the 3 tablespoons of milk to the beaten eggs and mix well.
2. Combine Dry Ingredients:
- In another shallow bowl, mix together the bread crumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, and dried parsley.
3. Prepare Pork Chops:
- Rinse the pork chops under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
4. Coat the Pork Chops:
- Dip each pork chop first into the egg wash, ensuring it's completely covered.
- Then coat each pork chop with the bread crumb mixture, pressing the crumbs onto the meat to ensure a good coating.
5. Heat the Oil:
- In a large skillet, heat the 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.
- Once hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
6. Cook the Pork Chops:
- Place the coated pork chops in the skillet with the garlic.
- Cook each side for 4-5 minutes, or until the breading is golden brown and the pork chops are cooked through (internal temperature should reach 145°F or 63°C).
7. Rest and Serve:
- Transfer the cooked pork chops to a plate and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve hot with your choice of sides, such as a fresh salad, roasted vegetables, or mashed potatoes.

Tips:

- Make sure to use fresh garlic for the most potent and aromatic flavor.

- If you prefer, you can use panko breadcrumbs instead of regular breadcrumbs for an extra crispy texture.

- To ensure even cooking, pound the pork fillet to an even thickness before breading.

- Allow the breaded pork chops to rest for a few minutes before cooking to help the coating adhere better.

- For added flavor, you can marinate the pork in olive oil, garlic, and dried parsley for a few hours before breading.

- Serve the pork chops with a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh salad to complete the meal.

With its crispy, flavorful crust and tender, juicy interior, Parmesan-garlic Italian pork chops are sure to become a favorite at your dinner table. Whether you're serving them to guests or enjoying a quiet meal at home, this recipe delivers a satisfying and memorable culinary experience.
