Ingredients

4 pork chops, about 1.5 lb total (680 g total)
2 tbsp (30 ml) Dijon mustard
1 tbsp (15 ml) olive oil
1 / 2 tsp salt
1 / 2 tsp black pepper
1 / 2 cup (60 g) breadcrumbs
2 tbsp (30 ml) chopped fresh parsley
1 tbsp (15 ml) chopped fresh rosemary

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). In a small bowl, combine the Dijon mustard, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture over both sides of the pork chops.
2. In another bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, parsley, and rosemary. Press this mixture onto the pork chops, ensuring an even coating. Place the chops on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes until the crust is golden and the pork is cooked through. Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving.
