Parmesan Sage Pork Chops

I got this recipe from allrecipes.com and it turned out wonderfully! I didn't have all the ingredients so I improvised a bit. Instead of lemon peel I only had lemon juice, so I poured about a tablespoon in with the beaten egg. This recipe is so easy and it does not take very long if you need a quick dinner idea!

What you need:

2 tbs. all-purpose flour

1/4 tsp. salt

Dash ground black pepper

3/4 cup soft bread crumbs

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 1/2 tsp. rubbed sage

1/2 tsp. grated lemon peel

1 egg, lightly beaten

2-bone-in pork loin chops

1 tbs. olive oil or vegetable oil

1 tbs. butter

In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt and pepper. In another shallow dish, combine the bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, sage and lemon peel. Place egg in shallow bowl. Coat pork chops with flour mixture, dip in egg, and then coat with bread crumb mixture. Let stand for about 5 minutes.

In a skillet, brown pork chops in oil and butter for 2 minutes on each side. Transfer to a greased 11 in. x 7 in. x 2 in. baking dish. Bake uncovered at 425 degrees F for 10 - 15 minutes or until juices run clear and meat is fully cooked.
