dinner Main Course
Prep Time
15 minutes
Cook Time
15 minutes
Ingredients
1 cup panko (breadcrumbs)
-
1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan
- 2 large eggs
- 6 boneless pork loin chops, (pounded thin to 1/3 inch-thick (1 1/2 pounds total))
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
-
1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 6 lemon wedges
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
- Coarsely crush the panko into a large shallow bowl. Stir the cheese into the panko. Lightly beat the eggs in another large shallow bowl. Sprinkle the pork generously with salt and pepper. Dip the pork, 1 piece at a time, in the egg, allowing the excess to drip off, then dredge the pork in the crumb mixture, patting to coat completely. Place the pork on a small baking sheet.
- Heat 1/4 cup of oil in a heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add half of the pork to the hot oil and cook until golden brown and just cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to paper towels to drain, then transfer them to a clean baking sheet and keep them warm in the oven. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons of oil to the skillet and fry the remaining pork.
- Transfer the pork to plates and serve with lemon wedges.

I’ve never pounded and coated pork chops, but it produced great texture and taste. And to add fresh lemon juice! Wonderful!
I was nervous about the pork being cooked long enough, but I took the temp and tried a chop at the correct time and let them sit a bit in the 200 degree oven. This dish passed the picky eater and lemon lover test!
Served with mashed potatoes and carrots.
I love this. Nothing to it, quick and sooooo tasty! I added a little fresh oregano and smoked black pepper. I'd never made it with lemon juice, and after one taste I went ahead and grated a little zest on top. Superb!
