Ingredients

• 4 bone-in pork chops (about 1 inch thick)
• 1 cup breadcrumbs
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 medium potatoes, diced
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

How to Make Crispy Pork Chops with Garlic Butter

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. In a large bowl, toss the diced potatoes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them out on a baking sheet in a single layer.
3. Place the potatoes in the oven and roast for about 20-25 minutes, or until golden and crispy, tossing halfway through.
4. While the potatoes are roasting, prepare the pork chops. In a shallow dish, combine the breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
5. Coat each pork chop in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
6. In a large skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the pork chops and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
7. Transfer the seared pork chops to the baking sheet with the potatoes for the last 10-15 minutes of roasting, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
8. While the pork chops are finishing in the oven, melt the butter in the same skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
9. Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the chopped parsley.
10. Once the pork chops are done, drizzle the garlic butter over them and serve alongside the roasted potatoes.

Tips for the Best Results

• Ensure your pork chops are at room temperature before cooking to promote even cooking.
• Use panko breadcrumbs for an extra crispy texture.
• Adjust the seasoning in the breadcrumb mixture to suit your taste.
• Don’t overcrowd the pan when searing the pork chops; cook in batches if necessary.

Easy Variations

• Swap out the pork chops for boneless chicken breasts or thighs for a different protein.
• Add other seasonings like Italian herbs or chili flakes for a kick.
• Try sweet potatoes instead of regular potatoes for a sweeter twist.

What to Serve With It

• A fresh green salad with a tangy vinaigrette.
• Steamed broccoli or green beans for a pop of color and nutrition.
• Applesauce or a fruit chutney for a sweet contrast to the savory chops.
• Homemade coleslaw for a crunchy side.
