Parmesan Crusted Pork Chops with Champagne Mustard

Ingredients

4 (3/4 inch) thick Pork Chops (top loin, lean, boneless)

1 Dash Black Pepper

1/4 cup Cherchies® Champagne Mustard

2 Tbsp. Olive Oil

1/4 tsp. Cherchies® Garlic'n Herbs No Salt Seasoning

1/4 tsp. Dried Basil Leaves

1/4 tsp. Dried Oregano Leaves

3/4 cup Parmesan Cheese, grated

--------------------------------

●Preheat oven to 400º F. ●Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and set aside ●Season the pork chops with pepper ●In a small bowl, whisk together mustard, oil, and remaining spices and brush mixture onto both sides ●Press the grated Parmesan cheese into both sides of the chops (I am pretty liberal with the cheese. I like a thick coating but a thin one will work, too.) ●Place the chops on the baking sheet. Bake for approximately 20 minutes, or until the coating is browned and the chops are cooked. For a slightly crispier texture, broil for one minute. Serves 4.
