BAKED PORK CHOPS

What a whirlwind weekend.  Thanks heavens the weather was so beautiful.  My Grand daughter Christina won an award for the best essay.  Her sister Kate pitched another incredible softball game.  Christina was a star in her musical at school.  And she also had her last basketball game.  Talk about running around, you could get tired just thinking about that weekend.  But what a fun time.  My grand daughters have two amazing parents.

Today I have a great recipe for Pork Chops.  Quick and easy but oh so good.

BAKED PORK CHOPS

4 - 3/4" Pork Chops
Italian Bread Crumbs
3 Eggs
Flour
Fresh Rosemary
Olive Oil
Butter
White Wine

Have 3 pie plates ready.  Put flour in one, the beaten eggs in another.  Mince up the Rosemary and add it to the bread crumbs and put it into the other plate.  Heat oven to 350 degrees.  Salt and pepper the pork chops on both sides.  Dip them into the flour on both sides, then into the egg, then into the bread crumbs. Set them aside for about 5 minutes.  (this keeps the coating from coming off when you fry them).  In a skillet, add about 3 or 4 tablespoons of Olive Oil and 1 tablespoon of butter.  When hot quickly brown the chops on both sides.  Remove to a baking dish, and bake for about 45 minutes to an hour.  When they are done, remove from the oven and cover lightly with a piece of foil.  Add 1 cup of white wine to the skillet with 1 tablespoon of butter and cook for about 3 minutes getting all the bits up from the pan.  Put the chops on a platter and pour the juice over them.  Top with a couple of sprigs of Rosemary.  Serve with roasted new potatoes and sauteed spinach.

Remember, Pork is the other White Meat!  And these chops are yummy.

Thanks for stopping in today
