Ingredients for Easy Baked Pork Chops
- 6 pork chops
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon seasoning salt
- 2 eggs, beaten
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups Italian-style seasoned bread crumbs
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
- ½ cup milk
- ⅓ cup white wine
Instructions for the Perfect Baked Pork Chops Recipe
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Season the pork chops with garlic powder and seasoning salt. In a small bowl, beat the eggs.
- Place the all-purpose flour in a shallow dish. Dip each pork chop into the flour, shaking off any excess, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat in the bread crumbs.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Brown the pork chops on both sides, approximately 5 minutes each side.
- Transfer the browned pork chops to a baking dish. Combine the cream of mushroom soup, milk, and white wine in a separate bowl. Pour over the pork chops in the baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the pork chops are cooked through, about 1 hour and 30 minutes. Ensure the juices run clear and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Healthier Cooking Option for Baked Pork Chops
To make this dish a bit healthier, you can consider air frying the pork chops instead of pan-frying them. This method reduces the need for excess oil and retains the flavor. Simply follow the steps until the coating stage, then air fry the chops at 400°F (200°C) for about 15 minutes before baking them with the sauce.
