Breaded oven baked pork chops are the simplest way to make tender, perfect pork every time. I’ve got a special tip to make sure they come out juicier too! 
 
I found some fun new Shake and Bake Ritz Cracker Crumbs – they have different flavors so I was excited to try them. They’re delicious on these baked breaded pork chops!
 
 

How long do you bake pork chops in the oven? 

I like to go with the “low and slow” method and cook them at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes. The most important part thing is to use a meat thermometer (here’s a super affordable instant read!) 
 
There’s a few tips I like to use when baking pork chops to make sure they’re extra juicy:
– Brine them – more on that if you scroll down!
– Baste them in mayo – it’s another layer around the meat to hold the juices in
– Don’t be afraid of a layer of fat around your pork chops – fat = flavor! You don’t have to eat the layer of fat – but it helps hold the juices in. 
– Go for bone-in chops whenever possible – same with the fat – the bone also adds flavor. 
 

Breaded baked pork chops are great because you can cook them at  a lower temperature and do little things like brining the meat and basting with mayonnaise to hold the moisture in. 

Why should you brine pork chops? 

Brining is similar to a marinade because it increases the moisture-holding capacity of the meat – which makes it juicier when you cook it! It’s easy to do also! I just poured salt into a bowl of water and then popped the chops in there for 30 minutes! 
If you’re looking for other delicious pork chop recipes – I’ve got them all – stove top, grill, air fryer and these oven baked! For the stove top – try these Garlic Brown Sugar Pork Chops! If you’re wanting to grill your pork chops, this recipe for Easy Grilled Pork Chops. Probably my favorite way to cook pork chops is in the air fryer for sandwiches – so good!
