BONELESS BUTTERFLY PORK CHOP RECIPES RECIPES

Steps:

• 1. On a cutting board, using a very sharp knife, butterfly the pork chops; making sure not to cut all the way through. Open chops and place between two pieces of parchment paper or plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet until  between 1/16 to 1/4-inch thick (depending on your preference). Season both sides of chops with salt and pepper.
  2. In a shallow bowl whisk together panko and Italian seasoning. In another shallow bowl pour flour. In the last shallow bowl beat eggs. 
  3. Place a wire cooling rack over a baking sheet. One at a time dredge both sides of the pork chop in flour then dip into egg mixture, letting any excess drip off before placing in panko. Make sure both sides are completely covered in bread crumbs before placing breaded chop on wire rack. Repeat process with remaining chops.
  4. To a large skillet, add enough oil to sufficiently cover the bottom of the pan. Heat over medium-high. Once oil is hot, add breaded chops; working in batches of 2-3. Cook 3-4 minutes per side, or until chop is golden brown and crispy. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate. Immediately season with salt. 
  5. Serve over mashed potatoes topped with sauerkraut, mustard, and a side of corn.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425° F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. (You can also bake pork chops in a baking dish, without parchment.)
• Pat pork chops dry with paper towels. Rub pork chops with the olive oil and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
• Combine the brown sugar, paprika, onion powder, dried thyme, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Stir to mix well.
• Rub the spice mixture over all sides of the pork chops.
• Bake pork chops in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes for 1-inch thick boneless pork chops. The pork chops are done when the internal temperature measures 145° F on an instant read thermometer. (Thinner pork chops will cook faster, bone-in pork chops will take longer to cook. See notes.) Be careful not to overcook the pork chops or they may dry out.
• Let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes and then serve.
