Sometimes the best meals are the ones that take you back to basics. Breadcrumb Baked Pork Chops seem simple on the surface, yet every individual element perfectly combines to make a magnificent main! The breadcrumbs are crunchy and golden, the Italian seasoning adds aromatic zest, the parmesan is sharp and nutty... and then there is the pork. Oh, that pork; juicy, savory, with a touch of natural sweetness from the meat. It's pure perfection... pure pork perfection that can only come from Breadcrumb Baked Pork Chops!
