INGREDIENTS
4 boneless pork chops
1/4 c. Parmesan cheese grated
2 Tbsp Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
1/4 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp dried parsley

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
Mix Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, paprika, parsley, garlic powder and pepper together in a pie plate.
Put olive oil in a frying pan and heat on medium-high. Swirl the pan to coat.
Dip each pork chop in the bread crumb mixture. Pat to make it stick if needed.
Add pork chops to pan and saute for 2 minutes on each side until golden brown. Place in a glass baking dish or leave it in the pan if it is oven safe.
