| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | In a bowl, combine the egg, pineapple juice, soy sauce, and garlic powder, stirring until well blended. This mixture will infuse the pork chops with a tantalizing blend of sweet and savory flavors. |
| 2 | In another bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs and paprika, creating a crunchy coating for the pork chops that will add a delightful texture to each bite. |
| 3 | Dip each pork chop into the egg mixture, ensuring it’s thoroughly coated to lock in the flavors. Then, dredge it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere the crumbs to the meat. |
| 4 | Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking pan by spraying it with cooking spray, ensuring the chops won’t stick during cooking. |
| 5 | Place the coated pork chops on the prepared baking pan, arranging them in a single layer for even cooking. |
| 6 | Bake the pork chops in the preheated oven for approximately 20 minutes. Then, carefully turn them over using tongs and continue baking for an additional 15 minutes, or until the chops are cooked through and golden brown on the outside. |
| 7 | Once cooked, remove the pork chops from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring each bite is juicy and flavorful. |
| 8 | Serve your Hawaiian Pork Chops hot, garnished with fresh pineapple slices or chopped cilantro for an extra burst of tropical freshness. Enjoy the delightful combination of flavors that will transport you to a sunny Hawaiian paradise with every bite! |
