Remove the pan from heat and stir in the parsley, bread crumbs, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

Stir in the beaten egg.

If your pork chops dont have pockets cut into them, insert the point of a small sharp knife horizontally into the fat-covered edge.

Move the knife back and forth to create a deep pocket about 1 1/2 inches wide.

Fill the pocket of each chop with the bread crumb mixture.

Secure the openings with toothpicks and cotton thread or twine.

Place the chops on the rack and cover the roaster with the lid or aluminum foil.

Bake the chops for 1 hour, then uncover and continue baking for 20 minutes longer, to crisp the surface a bit.
