Prep: 10 minutes; Cook: 20 minutes Ingredients:
4 (4-ounce) boneless center-cut pork chops, trimmed |
2 (1.2-ounce) slices whole wheat bread |
1/4 cup grated fresh parmigiano-reggiano cheese |
1 teaspoon dried italian seasoning |
2 teaspoons olive oil |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1 tablespoon water |
1 large egg |
cooking spray |
4 lemon wedges |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450°.
2. Place pork chops between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap, and flatten to 1/4-inch thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin. Set aside.
3. Place bread in a food processor, and pulse 10 times to form coarse crumbs that measure 1 1/2 cups. Place breadcrumbs in a pie plate or shallow dish. Stir in cheese and next 5 ingredients.
4. Combine water and egg in a bowl; stir well with a whisk. Dip pork chops in egg mixture; dredge in breadcrumb mixture.
5. Place pork chops on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Bake at 450° for 20 minutes or until done. Squeeze a lemon wedge over each chop.
6. Pork Milanese (mee-lah-NAY-zay), a traditional dish from Milan, is simply a piece of meat that is dipped in egg, dredged in breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese, and then pan-fried and doused with lemon juice.
