PARMESAN-CRUSTED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a baking dish with cooking spray.
• Whisk egg in a shallow bowl.
• Mix Parmesan cheese and Cajun seasoning together on a plate.
• Dip each pork chop into egg. Press into Parmesan mixture until coated on both sides. Place in the prepared baking dish.

MUSTARD-CRUSTED PORK CHOPS WITH ROASTED APPLES AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Position oven racks in the upper and lower third of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
• Toss the apples and onion in a large bowl with 2 tablespoons of the oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Spread into an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast on the lower oven rack until tender and caramelized, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toss together the panko, butter, whole-grain mustard, Dijon, thyme and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl until well combined (the breadcrumbs should hold together when squeezed). Season the pork chops generously on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat until shimmering and very hot. Add the pork chops and cook, undisturbed, until well browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip the chops, then press some of the mustard-panko mixture onto the top of each chop. Transfer the saute pan to the upper rack of the oven and roast until the panko is browned and the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees F, 6 to 8 minutes more.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in another large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the Swiss chard stems, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Add the chard leaves and chicken broth and continue to cook, stirring, until the chard is wilted and the broth has almost completely evaporated, 2 to 3 minutes more. Stir in the vinegar, then season with salt and pepper.
• Divide the pork chops, apples and chard among 4 dinner plates. Spoon any pan juices from the chard over the vegetables and serve warm.

CRUSTED BAKED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Put pork chops in a shallow dish or zip-loc bag.
• Add enough milk to cover chops.
• Soak pork chops in the milk several hours or overnight in the refrigerator, turning if necessary.
• Crush the club crackers into coarse crumbs.(I place them in a zip-loc bag and crush them with a rolling pin.).
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Remove pork chops from milk.
• Season VERY well with garlic salt (I often use Morton Nature's Seasons in place of the garlic salt).
• Dredge seasoned chops with the cracker crumbs, making sure they are well coated with crumbs.
• Place the coated crumbs on a cookie sheet.(I use an ungreased one and never have a problem with sticking. You can spray it lightly with PAM if you prefer.).
• Bake for 1 hour in preheated 325 degree Fahrenheit oven.
• Cooking time includes soaking overnight.
• Slight variation: Sometimes I will season with Morton's Nature's Seasons instead of the garlic salt.
• ***I have tried this with other crackers, it is okay, but just not quite as good***.

CORNBREAD-CRUSTED FRIED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and top with a cooling rack.
• Sprinkle both sides of the pork chops liberally with salt and pepper. Combine the buttermilk and hot sauce in a large mixing bowl. Put the pork chops in the buttermilk mixture, being sure that all 4 are submerged. Set aside to rest for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, put the cornbread crumbs into a shallow dish.
• Pour the vegetable oil into a large (10-inch) cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan. Clip a deep-frying thermometer to its side and heat the oil to 350 degrees F.
• Lift a pork chop out of the buttermilk by its top bone using tongs, and allow any excess to drip off. Lightly dredge both sides of the pork chop in the cornbread crumbs. Carefully lower the coated chop into the hot oil. Repeat this process with a second chop. Cook the chops until crispy on one side, 3 to 4 minutes. Gently turn the pork chops and fry until golden brown, an additional 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer the crispy chops to the prepared cooling rack. Sprinkle the chops with additional salt and transfer to the oven to stay warm while the remaining chops are fried. Repeat this process with the remaining pork chops.
• For the white gravy: Reserve 2 tablespoons of skillet oil for the gravy, then drain the remaining oil from the skillet, being sure to remove any bits of fried cornbread left behind. Add the butter to the skillet, pour in the reserved oil and heat over medium heat until the butter melts. Sprinkle in the flour, whisking, and cook until a smooth paste is formed, about 1 minute. Pour in the milk, whisking continuously. Cook, whisking occasionally, until a thick sauce is formed and the gravy coats the back of a spoon, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the hot sauce and season the gravy with salt and pepper as desired.
• Transfer the crispy pork chops to a serving platter. Spoon the white gravy over the chops and garnish with parsley. Serve immediately.
