Ingredients for Homemade Shake and Bake Pork Chops
- Pork chops: 1-inch thick bone-in pork chops. I recommend the rib chop.
- Breadcrumbs: Use Italian breadcrumbs, not PANKO. Plain bread crumbs will also work just add 1 tablespoon of Italian seasoning.
- Oil: I recommend vegetable or canola oil
How to make this recipe
- Step 1: In a large ziplock plastic bag combine bread crumbs and the seasoning mix and give it a shake until combined.
- Step 2: Next add the oil to the seasoned breadcrumb mixture and mix it until combined.
- Step 3: Add a pork chop and seal the top of the bag.
- Step 4: Shake the breading mixture until the pork chop is completely coated. Repeat until all are coated.
- Step 5: Place the coated pork chops on the rack.
- Step 6: Bake until golden brown.
Why This Recipe Works
Shake-n-bake pork chops have so much flavor and the breading is crispy and doesn't fall off. It's a classic quick and easy family dinner like my Smothered Pork Chops! If your family loves pork chops as much as we do try my Garlic Brown Sugar Pork Chops.
Recipe Tips
- I prefer to use 1-inch thick-cut bone-in pork chop, but boneless pork chops can also be used if they are thinner you'll have to reduce the cooking time.
- You can substitute Chicken breasts for pork in this recipe. You just may have to adjust the cooking time.
- Use a cooling rack placed on top of a baking sheet to prevent the coating on the pork chops from getting soggy on the bottom.
