Asiago Panko Crusted Pork Chops Recipes

Steps:

• Trim pork of any fat. Place between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and pound (using a meat mallet, rolling pin, or small heavy skillet) to about 1/4 inch thickness. Separate egg white from the yolk and place in a shallow dish. Beat the egg white with a little bit of water so that it is easy to dip the pork. In another shallow dish combine panko, cheese, salt, and pepper. Dip pork in egg white mixture and then dredge in the panko mixture, pressing down to coat evenly. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Careful place pork into the skillet and cook 3 - 4 minutes on each side or until lightly golden (if you are using a meat thermometer to check for doneness the pork should reach an internal temperature of 160-170 degrees Fahrenheit). Remove pork to a plate or serving platter. Squeeze 1 lemon wedge over each pork chop and sprinkle with chopped thyme. Serve with a green vegetable for a "springy" dish. Even if it's as dreary outside at your house today as it is at mine!

Steps:

• Place pork between 2 sheets of plastic wrap; use a meat mallet or small heavy skillet to pound meat to an even thickness of about 1/4 inch.
• Place egg white in a shallow dish. Combine panko, cheese, salt and pepper in another shallow dish. Dip pork in egg white; dredge in panko mixture, pressing gently with fingers to coat.
• Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add pork; cook 5 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Sprinkle each evenly with thyme.

Steps:

• 1. You will need 3 shallow dishes. One for the flour mix, one for the egg & milk, and one for the panko mix.
• 2. Dish #1 Put together sifted flour, 1/2 tsp. regular table salt, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. Mix well. Dish #2 Beat egg and milk together. Dish #3 Mix together panko, paprika, and kosher salt.
• 3. Dry off meat with paper towel then drag in flour.
• 4. Dip in egg mixture.
• 5. Coat with panko.
• 6. Fry in oil, 2 - 3 minutes per side or until done, depending on thickness.
• 7. Drain on rack for a minute or two, then serve.

Steps:

• Pour 1 cup water in a 4-cup microwave-safe measuring cup. Microwave until boiling, about 4 minutes. Stir in kosher salt and sugar, until dissolved. Add remaining 3 cups water to make a brine.
• Place rosemary sprig and bay leaf in a 1-gallon zip-top bag. Carefully pour in brine and add pork chops. Seal the bag, removing as much air as possible, and refrigerate about 2 hours.
• Remove chops from the brine and discard the brine. Pat chops dry with paper towels.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Break egg into a shallow bowl and beat lightly. Combine panko, grated Parmesan, Italian seasoning blend, and black pepper, and place on a plate or cutting board. Dip each pork chop in the egg, then coat all sides with the panko mixture. Spray both sides of the coated chops with extra-virgin olive oil.
• Place chops in the air fryer in a single layer, with chops not touching, and air-fry for 7 to 8 minutes per side, for a total of 14 to 16 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the chops should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
• Serve warm, garnished with parsley and additional rosemary sprigs, if desired.

Steps:

• Place beaten eggs on a large plate.
• Mix flour, seasoned salt, garlic powder, and black pepper on another plate. Spread out panko bread crumbs on a third plate.
• Dip pork chops in egg, then in flour, again in egg, and finally in panko. Press lightly on pork chops so that the panko adheres. Set aside and let rest while oil is heated.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add pork chops and cook uncovered until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip pork chops over and cook until no longer pink in the center, 3 to 4 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
