Asiago cheese—a popular Italian cow's milk cheese—and crunchy breadcrumbs form a delicate crust on these fork-tender pork chops. Accompany with Broccoli with Sour Cream Sauce for a hearty meal that can be on the table in less than 15 minutes. Ingredients:
4 (4-ounce) boneless center-cut loin pork chops |
1 egg white, lightly beaten |
1/2 cup panko (japanese breadcrumbs) |
1/4 cup (1 ounce) grated asiago cheese |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper |
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil |
4 lemon wedges |
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme |
Directions:
1. Place pork between 2 sheets of plastic wrap; pound to an even thickness (about 1/4 inch) using a meat mallet or a small heavy skillet.
2. Place egg white in a shallow dish. Combine panko, cheese, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish. Dip pork in egg white; dredge in panko mixture, pressing gently with fingers to coat.
3. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add pork; cook 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Squeeze 1 lemon wedge over each pork chop; sprinkle each evenly with thyme.
