Garlic Parmesan Pork Chop Directions
Step-by-Step Instructions:
Coat the Pork Chops:
-
In a large mixing bowl, add mayonnaise. Coat each pork chop thoroughly with mayonnaise using a wooden spoon or your hands.
Prepare the Coating:
-
In a separate bowl, combine flour, bread crumbs, onion powder, garlic Parmesan seasoning, garlic salt, and pepper. Mix well.
Coat the Pork Chops:
-
Roll each pork chop in the coating mixture, ensuring they are evenly covered.
(For less mess, place the coating mixture in a gallon-sized bag, add the pork chops one at a time, and shake to coat.)
Heat the Oil:
-
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Wait until the oil is hot and bubbling before proceeding.
(Tip: Reduce the heat to medium once the oil reaches the right temperature to avoid burning.)
Fry the Pork Chops:
-
Place the pork chops carefully in the skillet. Fry until golden brown and crispy on each side, about 5-7 minutes per side depending on thickness. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Add Parmesan Cheese:
-
Once the pork chops are fully cooked and crispy, place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Sprinkle shredded Parmesan cheese over the tops while they are still hot.
Keep Warm:
-
Place the Parmesan-topped pork chops in a warm oven (around 200°F) while you prepare your side dishes.

To store Parmesan-crusted pork chops properly, follow these steps:
Allow the Pork Chops to Cool:
After cooking the pork chops, let them cool to room temperature before storing them. This prevents condensation from forming inside the storage container, which could make the crust soggy.
Refrigerate Promptly:
Place the cooled pork chops in an airtight container or wrap them tightly with plastic wrap. Refrigerate the pork chops within two hours of cooking to ensure food safety.
Separate Layers:
If you need to stack the pork chops in the storage container, separate them with parchment paper or foil to prevent the crusts from sticking together.
Store in the Fridge: Keep the Parmesan-crusted pork chops in the refrigerator for up to 3 to 4 days. Discard any leftovers beyond this time to maintain freshness and food safety.
Reheat Properly:
When reheating the pork chops, use an oven or toaster oven to help maintain the crispy crust. Avoid microwaving them, as it may result in a less crispy texture.
Freezing Option:
If you have leftover pork chops that you won't consume within a few days, you can freeze them for up to 2-3 months. Wrap each pork chop individually in plastic wrap or foil before placing them in a freezer-safe container or freezer bag. Thaw the frozen pork chops in the refrigerator before reheating.
