FAQs
Can I use a different type of bread crumb?
Yes, if you don’t have Italian-seasoned bread crumbs, you can use plain bread crumbs and add Italian seasoning or dried herbs like basil and oregano for similar flavor.
What can I do if I don’t have an oven-proof skillet?
If you don’t have an oven-proof skillet, you can transfer the pork chops to a baking dish after browning them in the skillet, and then bake them in the oven.

can i swap the bread crumbs for something less carbs sandra? trying to keep it keto over here
Just tried this recipe, turned out great! Love the step-by-step guide, really helpful for a newbie like me.
no way frying is better than grilling, you guys ever try grilling your pork chops? brings out a smokey flavor you cant get in a skillet
ever consider not everyone has a grill? not everyone’s living your bbq dream, buddy.
Followed the recipe to the letter, but felt the pork lacked flavor. Maybe it needs more seasoning? More herb recommendations, Sandra, could be useful.
Interesting technique. Might give it a try.
if my oven could talk, it would wonder why we’re suddenly baking pork chops haha
maybe because it’s tired of burning them, ever thought of that?
good point, no burn dinner is a win in my book
Sometimes I wonder, if pork chops could speak, what tales would they tell of the skillet and the oven? Would they appreciate the breadcrumb coat as we do?
