Ingredients
list of 10 items
4 boneless center cut pork chops, about ¾-inch thick (about 5 ounces each)
4 teaspoons cornstarch
½ cup dry breadcrumbs
½ cup Corn Flake crumbs (about 1 ½ cups of whole cereal measured before crushing)
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon salt, plus extra for seasoning the meat
2 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil
1 egg, lightly beaten
list end
Instructions
list of 6 items
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside.
2. Season pork chops liberally with salt on both sides. Sprinkle the cornstarch over the pork chops and pat to coat evenly on both sides.
3. In a large, shallow dish, combine breadcrumbs, Corn Flake crumbs, sugar, paprika, onion powder and salt. Drizzle with oil and mash with a fork until
the oil is thoroughly incorporated.
4. Lightly beat the egg with a fork in another shallow dish.
5. Dip the pork into the egg, then press into the breading mixture until evenly coated on both sides. (Discard leftover mixture.)
6. Place the pork on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until just barely pink in the center and an instant read thermometer registers 145 degrees F, about
15-20 minutes.

Recipe Notes
Write list…
• The oil in the breading helps the pork chops turn crispy and golden brown in the oven — no frying necessary! Don’t skip the oil, or the end result won’t
be nearly as good.• I love the combination of the breadcrumbs and Corn Flake crumbs in this breading mixture, because the Corn Flakes add extra crunch
and flavor that you can’t get from the breadcrumbs. I prefer the finer texture of regular breadcrumbs for this recipe, but you can substitute with Panko
breadcrumbs if that’s all that you have.• Instead of the breadcrumbs, add extra flavor to the breading mixture by using finely crushed Ritz crackers with
the Corn Flakes!• For a special touch, add a couple of tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese to the breading mixture.• The baked breaded pork chops are
a healthy alternative to more traditional fried chops. Each oven “fried” pork chop has about 348 calories, 14 grams of fat and 33 grams of protein. This
is not a Keto-friendly, low-carb or gluten-free dish, as each serving includes 22 grams of carbohydrates. These nutritional stats assume that you use all
of the breading in the recipe. The exact nutrition information for your meal will vary depending on the ingredients, the size and type of pork chops, and
the amount of breading used.• Cooking just for two? Cut all of the ingredients in half and just bake two pork chops. The rest of the cooking instructions
remain the same.
