Arrange on prepared baking sheet. Broil, without turning, until well browned and cooked through, about 15 minutes.

CRISPY PORK CHOPS WITH BUTTERED RADISHES

Steps:

• Season pork with salt and pepper. Place panko in a rimmed baking sheet or baking dish and season it with salt and pepper. Working one at a time, firmly press both sides of each pork chop into the seasoned panko until the chops are evenly and well coated.
• Heat oil in a large skillet (10 to 12 inches) over medium-high heat; it should evenly coat the bottom of the skillet. If it doesn't, add a bit more oil. Place the pork chops in the skillet and cook until deeply golden brown, like the color of a well-baked croissant, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Using tongs or a spatula, flip pork and continue to cook until well browned on the other side, too, another 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer pork to a plate, platter or cutting board lined with paper towel and season with salt.
• Wipe out skillet and return to the stove over medium-high heat. Add butter, letting it sizzle, brown and foam. Add capers and half of the radishes, seasoning them with salt and pepper. Toss a few times, just to wilt the radish greens, if they're still on, and to evenly coat the radishes with the brown butter and capers.
• Divide pork chops among plates and nestle butter-tossed radishes and capers alongside, plus remaining raw radishes. Sprinkle with a bit of flaky salt and serve with lemon wedges alongside for squeezing over.

• Preheat broiler. Remove pork chops from marinade and arrange on a baking sheet; reserve marinade. Place pork chops under broiler, and cook 4 minutes, rotating pan once. Remove from broiler. Turn chops and spoon some of the reserved marinade over the tops. Return to broiler, and cook until just done, 4 to 7 minutes more.
