Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/3 cup all-purpose flour, for dredging
2 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups fresh breadcrumbs
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
4 bone-in pork chops, about 1/2-inch thick and patted dry (about 11/2 pounds total)
Extra-virgin olive oil, for shallow frying
Cooked spinach, for serving
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Put the flour in a shallow dish. Break the eggs into another shallow bowl and whisk with 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Mix the breadcrumbs with the oregano and thyme in a third shallow bowl.

  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat with enough oil to come halfway up the sides of the chops (about 1/4 cup). When the oil shimmers, add the chops and fry until golden brown and crispy, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels briefly. Serve hot with cooked spinach and lemon wedges.
