One thing I do differently than most versions of this recipe, is to use Dijon Mustard instead of an egg wash and it has added so much delicious flavor and helped hold in moisture to become one of our the favorite meals! This recipe is for 8-10 chops since I like to freeze the extras for a meal the following week.  Cook once eat twice! Adjust the amounts for however many chops you are making.

Easy Italian Pork Chop Recipe

Ingredients:

8-10 thin cut, boneless, center cut pork chops
2-3 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
½ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup Italian breadcrumbs
½ cup Parmesan cheese
½ tsp. red pepper flakes
½ tsp. Rosemary
½ tsp. Oregano
½ tsp. Basil
salt and pepper to taste
2-3 tsp. oil-canola, olive, or vegetable

Directions:

Combine, flour, bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, red pepper flakes, rosemary, oregano, and basil in a large flat dish, set aside.
Salt and pepper both sides of your pork chops.
Generously spread Dijon mustard all over both sides of chops to coat well.
Place oil in pan, just enough to coat bottom of pan and begin heating over medium.

Press coated chops into bread crumb mixture, flip and repeat on opposite side.
When oil is hot, place pork chops in pan without crowding and fry until golden brown, 3-5 minutes. Flip and repeat on other side 1-2 minutes.

Place chops on a paper towel lined plate to drain.

I like to serve my pork chops with mashed potatoes and a green vegetable like broccoli, asparagus, or sauteed spinach.
