It’s been awhile since I’ve posted a quick weeknight dinner and I think this oven-fried pork chop recipe fits into that category nicely. Have I mentioned before that I love preparing meals that spend some time in the oven? It gives you time to do something else, like prepare a side dish, help with homework or {look at Pinterest.}
How I wish I could say that I spent a lot of time on our Christmas decorations today. I had hoped to finish more of the outdoor decorating, but that just didn’t happen. I checked a lot of things off my list, but that just wasn’t one of them. There’s always tomorrow.
The recipe that follows is exactly as found in Southern Living’s Ultimate Cookbook, however, I made a few minor changes {must be the training.} I seasoned each chop with Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper.
After dredging the each pork chop in the seasoned breadcrumbs. I sprinkled some more paprika onto both sides.
The finished pork chops were juicy and had great flavor.
Have I apologized for these photos yet? You can tell I’m actually preparing these at dinnertime because setting the clocks back has really messed with the natural light for my photos {especially those taken at our dinner table.}.
Tomorrow it’s back to “the list” and finishing up the Christmas cards {I hope.}
