Pork Chops that Melt in Your Mouth

Step 1

Place just enough oil In skillet to barely cover bottom, heat to med-high heat, In meantime, season & lightly flour chops, if using panko you might need to rub a little olive oil on the meat to help the panko adhere. Preheat oven to 375.

Step 2

Lightly brown both side of chops, place on baking sheet ( you can spray baking sheet with spray oil but not needed unless pork is very lean). Pop in 375 oven for 25 to 35 min. depending on thickness of chops. I've had a number of people ask why dirty two pans, just put skillet in oven? That would work perfect unless you are cooking more than a skillet will hold which I normally do, so it's either dirty two skillets or a skillet and a baking sheet. Also a lot of times to save time I brown them on my electric griddle that I've generously added oil to, then place on baking sheet and in oven. This way I can do 6-8 at one time.

Step 3

NOTE: If using cube steak, reduce oven time to about 20 min.
