Ingredients and Preparation
| Ingredients | Measures |
|---|---|
| Breadcrumbs | ¼ cup |
| Dijon mustard | 2 teaspoons |
| Bone-in, center-cut pork chops | 2 (8-ounce) |
| Salt | ¼ teaspoon |
| Freshly ground pepper to taste | |
| Olive oil | 2 teaspoons |
- Directions
- Preheat oven to 400ºF.
- Use a fork to mix the breadcrumbs and mustard together in a small bowl (the mixture should be crumbly).
- Season the pork chops with salt and pepper, and heat the oil in an ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the pork chops for about 3 minutes on each side, until browned.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook the pork chops until a meat thermometer registers 160ºF. This should be about 20-25 minutes, but cooking time depends on the thickness of the chops.
