Pork Loin Chops

Most of the pork available now is very lean, and pork loin chops and roasts are especially so. This recipe adds excellent flavor and keeps the meat very moist. These can be cooked completely on the stove.

What you need

  1. 2 thick cut or 4 thin cut pork loin chops
  2. 1/2 cup flour
  3. 2 eggs
  4. 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
  5. 1 tsp onion powder
  6. 1 tsp garlic powder
  7. 2 tsp Old Bay Seasoning
  8. Parmesan Cheese (Optional)
  9. Salt & Pepper
  10. Olive Oil

How to make it

  1. Preheat oven to 375»
  2. If thick, cut pork chops in half to make two thin chops of each
  3. Salt and pepper both sides of pork
  4. Mix flour, onion powder, garlic powder and Old Bay Seasoning - spread on a plate or pie pan
  5. If using Parmesan, mix with the bread crumbs - spread on a plate or pie pan
  6. Lightly beat eggs and place into a shallow bowl
  7. Cover bottom of a skillet with olive oil and heat over medium high
  8. Dredge the chops first in the flour mixture, then dip into the egg, then in the bread crumbs.
  9. Pat crumbs onto the chops and place in the hot oil to brown
  10. Turn and brown the other side
  11. Remove chops to a place and drain excess oil from the skillet
  12. Return chops to the skillet and place into the oven for an additional 15-20 minutes until cooked to your liking

Be sure not to cover the skillet or you'll loose the crispy crumb crust. I sometimes rub the chops with dijon mustard before dredging with flour - a nice flavor twist.
