Crusted Baked Pork Chops Recipe


Crusted Baked Pork Chops Recipe
This quickly became one of my wife's favorite recipes, which surprised me as she's not big into seasonings. The "crust" comes from the cereal coating, that while it sounds bazaare is quite delicious! Also very easy to increase for larger parties.

Ingredients
  • 2 thick cut boneless pork chops, well trimmed
  • About 1 hearty cereal bowl of Frosted Shredded Wheat, crushed
  • 1 small onion, finely diced (optional - my wife doesn't like it)
  • 1 can of peeled whole tomatoes
  • Dry Ground Mustard
  • Brown Sugar
  • Salt and Pepper
  • Worcestershire Sauce
  • Olive oil for searing

Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
  2. Heat enough olive oil to cover your skillet about 1/4 inch over medium heat
  3. Add diced onion, if you so choose
  4. Rinse the chops under cold water and LIBERALLY coat with crushed cereal
  5. Brown chops in the olive oil (and onions if you are using them) on both sides, about 5 minutes each side
  6. Transfer chops to a "greased" (read: Pam type sprayed) baking dish
  7. Sprinkle the dry seasonings, including sugar, and worcestershire sauce over the chops to taste
  8. Place whole tomatoes on the chops to cover them (I also hand crush them over the chops)
  9. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 1 hour
  10. Uncover and bake for another 20 minues or so

For the cereal coating, I cover both sides as best as possible, then "scoop" a thicker layer on the top, bring it to the pan, and flip it right in the pan (with the thicker layer now down in the oil). I then add more to the top side now showing for when I flip them over. The cereal sears/browns to the chop quite nicely.


Love it. Thank you.


Make sure you stick to the maximum of 20 minutes in the oven uncovered. I made this last night and remembered it at about 25 minutes. Still was good, but was definitely extra crispy. The cereal coating got rather dark, but that was about the worst of it.
