Time 40m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 pork chops (Bone-in and about 1-2-inch thick)
1 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
1/2 cup kraft shredded parmesan cheese
2 -3 tablespoons classico basil pesto
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 375.
  • Coat baking sheet with cooking spray.
  • Mix breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese in medium size bowl or plate large enough to dredge chops into.
  • Pat pork chops dry with paper towel. Season each side with salt and pepper.
  • Coat Pork Chops with the pesto. Should be an even and thin layer of pesto on each side.
  • Dredge pork chops into breadcrumb/parmesan cheese mixture. Coat both sides and all around.
  • Place chops onto greased baking sheet. Lightly spray chops with cooking spray to get a crunchy outside.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes. The chops will continue to cook for another 5 minutes max while cooling down. This will prevent the chops from being dry!
