Recipes Tips
If you want to make these pork chops even more flavorful, try marinating them in a mixture of soy sauce, garlic, and brown sugar for a few hours before cooking.
For a crispier coating, use panko breadcrumbs instead of flour.
If you don’t have an oven-safe skillet, transfer the pork chops and sauce to a baking dish before baking in the oven.
