1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 cup all-purpose flour |
1 tablespoon prepared mustard |
2 large egg whites |
4 (4-ounce) boneless loin pork chops, trimmed |
1 1/2 tablespoons canola oil |
Directions:
1. Place bread in a food processor; pulse bread 10 times or until coarse crumbs measure about 1 cup. Combine breadcrumbs, cheese, sage, and salt in a shallow dish. Place flour in another shallow dish. Combine mustard and egg whites in another shallow dish, stirring with a whisk. 2. Working with 1 pork chop at a time, dredge pork in flour, shaking off excess.
