When you're in need of an easy and family-friendly dinner that doesn't require tons of crazy ingredients, baked pork chops are always a great choice. This simple recipe is easy to prepare, and the combination of crispy breading and creamy mushroom sauce will quickly become your weeknight go-to. Heres how to make them:

How to Make Baked Pork Chops

Follow these simple steps to make delicious baked pork chops that will satisfy your entire family:

Step 1: Bread the Pork Chops

Season the pork chops with garlic powder and seasoning salt to add flavor. Then, dredge each chop lightly in flour, dip it into beaten eggs, and coat thoroughly with Italian-style bread crumbs. This creates a crispy outer layer once fried.

Step 2: Pan-Fry the Pork Chops

Heat some olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the breaded pork chops and cook for about 5 minutes on each side, or until the breading is golden brown and crispy. This step gives the pork chops a nice crispy crust.

Step 3: Bake the Pork Chops

Transfer the browned pork chops to a 9x13-inch baking dish and cover with foil. Bake them in the preheated oven at 350F (175C) for about 1 hour. This allows the pork to cook thoroughly and remain juicy.

Step 4: Make the Mushroom Sauce

While the pork chops bake, prepare the sauce by mixing condensed cream of mushroom soup, milk, and white wine in a bowl. Stir until well combined, creating a rich, creamy sauce to pour over the pork chops later.

Step 5: Coat the Pork Chops with Sauce

After baking for 1 hour, remove the pork chops from the oven. Pour the mushroom sauce evenly over the chops, then cover the dish again with foil. Continue baking for another 30 minutes to allow the sauce to soak into the meat, making it even more flavorful and tender.

Step 6: Serve and Enjoy!

Once the pork chops are done, remove from the oven, serve hot, and enjoy the tender, flavorful chops with the creamy mushroom sauce. Pair them with your favorite sides for a complete meal.

What is the Best Cut of Pork to Use?

You can use either bone-in or boneless pork chops for this recipe, depending on your preference or what's available. Both options work perfectly, and the key is ensuring the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145F (63C) for optimal safety and taste.

"This was awesome! I made it as directed except I sauted some extra mushrooms I had and added them to the sauce. I also put in a little less milk as it looked like it would get runnier than I wanted. They turned out great! Not chewy at all, but super tender, and the sauce is amazing!" mariapedretti

"I have to give this recipe 5 stars - it was easy and so delicious!! I followed exactly (well, I had to use cream of chicken as I did not have mushroom, and my kids don't like mushrooms). They got nice and crispy in the frying pan, and that was the BEST part. My pork chops were tender and not dry at all. The gravy is great on the rice we had as well!" gretchn23

"I was looking for a recipe for thick pork chops and this was a huge hit. We all loved it! They were moist, tender, and so tasty. Had mashed potatoes and there was enough sauce for them as a gravy. I will never be afraid to get thick pork chops again!" msrane

FAQ about Easy Baked Pork Chops Recipe

Yes, you can use either boneless or bone-in pork chops. Both will work well in this recipe, though bone-in pork chops might have a bit more flavor and moisture.

Store leftover baked pork chops in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. To reheat, you can warm them in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes or until heated through.

Yes, you can freeze the baked pork chops. Allow them to cool completely, then wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and place in an airtight container or freezer bag. They can be stored in the freezer for up to 2-3 months. To reheat, thaw in the refrigerator overnight and reheat in the oven.

Yes, you can prepare the sauce ahead of time. Simply mix the condensed soup, milk, and white wine, then store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. When ready to bake the pork chops, just pour the pre-made sauce over the chops before covering and baking.

Yes, if you prefer not to use wine, you can substitute it with chicken broth, apple juice, or even water. If you're using a substitute like chicken broth, it will give the sauce a slightly different flavor, but it will still be delicious.

To keep the pork chops juicy and tender, make sure to bake them at the recommended temperature and time. Don't overcook them, as this can dry them out. If you're using thick pork chops, consider checking their internal temperature around 30 minutes of baking to ensure they reach 145°F (63°C) internally.

Baked pork chops pair well with a variety of sides. Some great options include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, steamed broccoli, or a simple salad. If you want something a bit more indulgent, try pairing them with a creamy casserole or cheesy green beans.

The breading on the pork chops may soften if they are covered with foil during baking. For a crisper crust, you can leave the foil off during the last 10-15 minutes of baking, allowing the breading to stay crispy.

If you're using thin pork chops, reduce the baking time by about 10-15 minutes. Thin chops will cook much faster than thick ones, so check their internal temperature (145°F or 63°C) early to avoid overcooking them.

Yes, you can skip the breading and just season the pork chops with garlic powder and seasoning salt. Pan-fry them as directed and then bake them with the sauce. The result will be a slightly different texture but still delicious.

I had planned to write this review two weeks ago, and since then, my husband has asked for this dish three more times. I made a few changes: I baked it for 35 minutes and heated the sauce in a pot on the stove instead of pouring it over the chops. I substituted cream of chicken for mushroom soup, since we're not fans of mushrooms, and doubled the milk instead of using wine. The result was fantastic. Thank you very much for sharing this recipe!

Review Rewritten: The aroma when this dish comes out of the oven is simply delightful and the preparation wasn't as time-consuming as I had imagined. I didn't bake the pork chops for as long as the recipe suggested due to time constraints, but they turned out perfectly cooked after 35 minutes – tender and juicy. The texture of the sauce was just right, striking a good balance between being too thin or too thick. One tip I would recommend is to double the sauce if you enjoy dipping your meat, as you'll find yourself wishing you had more once you taste it. I opted for Vermouth instead of white wine, and in the future, I'm considering increasing the quantity of Vermouth or white wine while reducing the amount of milk to enhance the sauce's flavor further, as the wine or Vermouth seems to be a significant contributor to the overall taste of the dish. A word of caution: when frying the pork chops, be mindful not to overcook them; maintain medium-high heat and check frequently. I barely rescued mine in time. Overall, I would give this recipe an A+.

I have made this recipe twice now. The flavor is excellent, but cooking it for an hour and a half resulted in dry pork, even though I used thick cuts. If I make it again, I will use a meat thermometer to ensure proper cooking time adjustment.

Great recipe and the chops turned out to be delightful. My 1" thick bone-in chops were already cooked to perfection after just 30 minutes, reaching a temperature above 165 degrees. I decided to enhance them by adding the sauce and baking for an additional 20 minutes. In the future, I might bake them for only 20 minutes initially, then add the sauce and finish with another 20 minutes, checking with a meat thermometer. Personally, I found that Marsala wine worked wonderfully. The sauce could benefit from more flavor, perhaps a touch of Dijon mustard would do the trick.

The pork chops are incredibly tender, requiring almost no effort to cut through. The flavor is simply outstanding!

Review rewritten: Putting together this meal wasn't as time-consuming as I expected. The stove cooked the pork faster than I anticipated, so it didn't need the full 30 minutes on each side. Despite that, it turned out to be a delicious dish for my family, and it introduced me to a new way of preparing pork. As a bonus, living in Texas, I paired it with a baked potato and green beans - a satisfying meal overall! 😊

I prepared this dish and it was a huge success! The only modifications I made were doubling the sauce and substituting Marsala wine for white wine.

Transferring the dish to a covered baking dish caused the crispy crust to become soggy. Baking for one hour resulted in the meat becoming overly dry. I believe that next time, cooking the chops entirely in a skillet will yield better results.

I've made these pork chops twice now, and they were absolutely delicious!

*NOTE* I DIDN'T USE THE SAUCE ON THE PORK CHOPS BECAUSE MY HUSBAND IS LACTOSE INTOLERANT!! The pork chops were incredibly delicious! I will definitely cook them again. I decided to finish them off in the air fryer for a crispy texture. However, the sauce prepared on the stovetop was lacking in flavor. It was just okay, so I won't be preparing the sauce next time.
