PECAN CRUSTED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350ºF.
• Spread a spoonful of mustard on one side of each pork chop, set aside.
• Pour the pecans into a food processor and blend until you have a good crumb consistency. I like to keep it kind of chunky, but you can crush them to a finer texture if you prefer. Set pecans aside in a shallow bowl.
• In another shallow bowl beat the eggs.
• Dip each pork chop in the egg, then the pecan mixture. Press the pecans into the pork chops lightly to ensure a good solid crust.
• Place your breaded pork chops in the freezer for 10 minutes, I think this helps to really seal the crust so the pecans stay on better. However, if you are short on time you can skip this step.
• Preheat a skillet to medium heat with the olive oil.
• Cook two pork chops at a time in the skillet, 1-2 minutes on each side. You are just looking for good color here, they will finish baking in the oven.
• Place pan seared pork chops on a baking sheet and cook 15-20 minutes.
• Please note your cooking time will vary based on how thick your pork chops are. I rely on my meat thermometer.

• Preheat a large saute pan over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Place butter and oil in the pan, then add pork. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C) for medium. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

• Remove pork chops from milk.
• Season VERY well with garlic salt (I often use Morton Nature's Seasons in place of the garlic salt).
• Dredge seasoned chops with the cracker crumbs, making sure they are well coated with crumbs.
• Place the coated crumbs on a cookie sheet.(I use an ungreased one and never have a problem with sticking. You can spray it lightly with PAM if you prefer.).
• Bake for 1 hour in preheated 325 degree Fahrenheit oven.
• Cooking time includes soaking overnight.
• Slight variation: Sometimes I will season with Morton's Nature's Seasons instead of the garlic salt.
• ***I have tried this with other crackers, it is okay, but just not quite as good***.
