Pork Chops In Creamy Champagne Sauce And Raisin Bread With Mascarpone And Pears Recipes

BREAD 'EM AND BAKE 'EM PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Position rack in center of oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Line a large rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.
• Place the melba toast in a food processor and pulse to form coarse crumbs, about 3 pulses.
• Transfer the crumbs to a large plastic resealable food storage bag and add the Italian Essence, 2 tablespoons of the Baby Bam, the garlic powder, Parmesan, and vegetable oil. Close the bag and shake to combine.
• In a medium mixing bowl, beat the eggs and remaining 2 teaspoons of Baby Bam with a fork.
• Using your hands, dip the pork chops 1 at a time into the eggs, then place in the bag, close, and shake to coat on both sides, pressing so that the crumbs adhere.
• Place the chops on the wire rack on the baking sheet.
• Bake until the pork chops are cooked through and the coating is golden brown and crisp, about 20 minutes.
• Using oven mitts or pot holders, remove the baking sheet from the oven and serve the chops immediately.
• Place all the ingredients in a small mixing bowl and stir well to combine, using a wooden spoon. Then store in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
