Ready In: 22 mins

ingredients
2 large - eggs

3 oz - dried breadcrumbs (Italian-style breadcrumbs)

3 oz - Parmesan cheese

4 - center-cut pork loin chops

  - salt and pepper

3 tablespoons - olive oil

directions
  1. Whisk the eggs and place in a shallow dish. Place the bread crumbs in another shallow dish and grate the Parmesan cheese onto a third shallow dish.
  2. Season the pork chops generously with salt and freshly-ground black pepper. Coat them completely with the grated Parmesan, patting to help the cheese adhere. Then dip the chops into the eggs and, finally, coat them completely with the bread crumbs, again patting to adhere.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the pork chops and cook for about 6 minutes per side until golden brown (if you have a cooking thermometer, the centre should reach 150ºF - 66ºC). Serve hot with lemon wedges.
