I just have to say this is one of the best pork chop recipes Iβve ever made! My kids and I were practically licking our plates clean after we devoured them! Thank you SO much for sharing this amazing recipe with us! It will definitely be on a monthly rotation for our family meals!
Christie says
This was a complete failure for me. The flavor was there but the chop never crisped up & melted off. Iβm not sure where I went wrong. I dipped in the mustard then dredged in the cheese mixture. At 40 mins the the crust was completely soggy yet the pork chop was done. Any suggestions?
Kacey says
Loved this! I didn't have the recommended mustard so I used spicy brown mustard but followed the recipe otherwise. It was easy and incredible!
