I love how crunchy almonds and sweet mustard sauce jazz up this tender pork dish. Usually, I double the recipe. One chop is never enough for my gang of grown children and grandkids. Ingredients:
1/2 cup smoked almonds |
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs |
2 eggs |
1/3 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
4 boneless pork loin chops (1 inch thick and 6 ounces each) |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
2 tablespoons butter |
1/2 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise |
1/4 cup honey |
2 tablespoons dijon mustard |
Directions:
1. In a food processor, process the almonds until finely chopped. Transfer to a shallow bowl; add bread crumbs. In another bowl, beat the eggs. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine flour, salt and pepper. Add pork chops, one at a time, and shake to coat. Dip in eggs, then coat with almond mixture.
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook chops in oil and butter for 5 minutes on each side or until a meat thermometer reads 160°. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, honey and mustard. Serve with pork chops. Yield: 4 servings.
