Crispy Parmesan-Dijon Pork Chops

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

In a small bowl, combine dijon mustard, olive oil, minced garlic, finely chopped thyme, onion powder, finely chopped oregano, ¼ tsp kosher salt, ¼ tsp black pepper, and finely chopped basil to create the pork chop coating.

Place pork chops on a plate and spread coating mixture evenly on both sides of each chop.

Spread grated Parmesan cheese on a shallow dish or pie pan, and press each coated pork chop into the Parmesan cheese, making sure they are well covered on all sides.

Place a flat roasting rack on a shallow baking sheet or roasting pan, and arrange the pork chops on the rack.

Season the chops with the remaining ¼ tsp kosher salt and ¼ tsp black pepper.

Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees F.

Raise the oven rack to the top and set the oven to broil on high, then broil the pork chops for 1-2 minutes, or until the Parmesan cheese is golden and crispy. Watch closely to avoid burning.
