Mom's Baked Breaded Pork Chops

 Mandy (Missouri) says:
I havent tried yet, I will tonight, but I would think you put the olive oil on the chops, then sprinkle with salt/pepper and then put in the bag with remaining ingredients. Otherwise how will the ingredients stick to the chop? Wouldn't it be a clumpy mess in the bag if you add the oil to the bag of ingredients?? I mean...

Oh my goodness these pork chops had the house smelling great. It's like living in my own personal gingerbread house. Soo soo soo good. I made them with Spanish rice and everyone is dying to eat them again. I'm engaged and I just know my new husband will love them

This is the 2nd time I made them and both been great but I keep running out of the mixture. And I read everyone saying they got too much but I don't get how. I even added more flour and olive oil to it. So how much should I make for 6 to 8 pork chops.

This is a great recipe. I tweaked it some and used Italian bread Crumbs with crushed applewood BBQ chips instead of some of the Ingredients listed. Turned out amazing! My first time cooking boneless pork chops. :)

I made this for dinner last night for my family, instead of crackers i used Corn Flakes, and instead of coating the chops with oil i used egg. CAME OUT GREAT!!!!

Could you use a baking rack on the sheet pan for extra crisp crust? Thanks.

My husband loved these. I only had pepper jack cheez-its in the house....came out delicious. I cut the paprika down to 1 tbsp and added a little cayenne powder. I baked them on a broiler pan so they would be a little crisper (not sitting in the juices). Making them again tonight.

I was on a used Ritz crackers instead, because they hold a salty taste to 'em. This recipe had my stomach on swole. I enjoyed it!!

These porkchops get 5 stars alone for how amazingly easy they are to make, and what a delicious pay-off at the end! The crust mixture makes a lot, I halved it and there was enough to coat my 4 chops plus the carrots I roasted in the oven (also delish). I really like the versatility you can use with different crackers. I'm also going to try this with chicken breasts. THANK YOU for this recipe 'Mom'!

Used the seasoned bread crumbs I had sitting around the house to whip up some of these. They smell amazing! So easy, and it barely used the breadcrumbs I had. Just cut a hole in the corner of the bag and drained it all back into the container for use another day. I also topped them with a little bit more Italian seasoning and gonna have a side of garlic shells. This dinner is fantastic! If only it cooked faster ;)

Re-using (saving) ANY breading mixture that has come in contact w/raw pork is a VERY BAD idea. Think Salmonella...??? Why go there??

 Bessler (Pennsylvania) replies:
I have been saving and reusing breading mixtures for years. First, no oils or liquids in the mixture to start. Then, I empty the breading into a new clean dry plastic bag before freezing. I roll it up very tight, squeeze all the air out, seal and return to the colder part of my freezer. Nobody sick yet! I definitely agree that just throwing used breading back on the shelf is a "recipe for disaster " especially if raw eggs were involved in the breading task.

I didn't have any types of crackers in the house but I did have Graham cracker crumbs so I used those instead. Turned out awesome!
