Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Spray a 6x8-inch casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Coat one side of the pork chop with mayonnaise. Press the garlic-herb panko bread crumbs firmly into the mayonnaise, ensuring an even coating. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Pour the cheddar-broccoli rice mix into the prepared casserole dish. Add water and whipping cream; stir well to combine. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Place the pork chop, coated-side up, onto the rice mixture in the dish. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the pork chop. (1 minute)

05

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until the pork chop is cooked through and the rice is tender, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the pork chop should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). (20 minutes)

06

Step

Let the dish rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute in the pork chop, resulting in a more tender and flavorful experience. (5 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the panko bread crumbs.
To ensure even cooking, select a pork chop that is uniform in thickness.
If the panko bread crumbs start to brown too quickly, tent the dish with foil during the last few minutes of baking.
