Ingredients

• 4 pieces Pork chops (bone-in or boneless)
• 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons Whole-grain mustard
• 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the Dijon mustard and whole-grain mustard, mixing well to create a smooth paste.

Step 3

In another bowl, mix together the panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the crust mixture.

Step 4

Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel, then brush each chop generously with the mustard mixture, coating both sides evenly.

Step 5

Press each mustard-coated pork chop into the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring an even crust forms on both sides.

Step 6

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.

Step 7

Transfer the seared pork chops to the prepared baking sheet and place them in the preheated oven.

Step 8

Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork chops reaches 145°F (63°C) when measured with a meat thermometer.

Step 9

Remove the pork chops from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve the mustard crusted pork chops alongside your favorite side dishes, such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
