Country oven friedpork chops recipe that can be made in under 30 minutes. These healthy breaded and baked southern style pork chops taste fried without the guilt of oil and grease!
Growing up in the south, fried pork chops were often circulated on our dinner menu. It’s a southern staple in all its glory, topped with white gravy a side of biscuits.
Fried pork chops are one of my favorite meals, but in an attempt to be a bit healthier and cut back on fried food, I decided to find a way to make one of my favorite fried dishes a little healthier. That’s when these oven fried pork chops came about!

Oh, these oven-fried pork chops look amazing! I totally grew up eating fried pork chops with biscuits + gravy, and this makes me miss the south. I might just have to whip this one up soon for nostalgia purposes! (And I love that you used lagniappe in the post, too…makes me miss LA!) Thanks for sharing! #client

These look so crispy and that gravy looks slurp-worthy! And there’s really nothing like a family (especially a mom) recipe. I love my mom’s adobo I could eat buckets of it.

YUM! This looks like a good ole fashioned southern dinner. I love white gravy but never seem to get it right. I need to give this recipe a try for sure
Robert says
I use an envelope of White Gravy Mix found in your local Super Market. No fail!
Robert says
I used ‘Italian Style’ Bread Crumbs instead of ‘Plain’ Bread Crumbs – for enhanced flavor! – YUM! –
Robert says
I won’t lie to you – – – the more simple & easier it is – – the better I like it. I don’t make biscuits from ‘scratch’ – and – I don’t care all that much for ‘refrigerated’ ones – – – so – – – I fix ‘frozen’ Mary B’s Butter Tasting Biscuits. I smear butter all over the tops & place them in a shallow pan – TOUCHING each other so they will ‘rise’ taller & pop them into a toaster oven to bake for 30 minutes @ 350 degree’s.
Then – I prepare the pork chops as described – using Italian Style Bread Crumbs instead of the Plain ones.
Then, I make White gravy using Pioneer Brand packets of powdered white gravy mix & brew according to instructions.
TA DA! – – – You can’t tell the difference in the one’s Grandma used to make – except HERS were done with Love! –
