I Made It Monday: Famous Pork Chops

Another tasty way to prepare pork chops! It is a simple recipe I found on allrecipes.com I followed the suggestions from people who had made this recipes (one of my favorite features of the website) and we loved it! It's definitely not the healthiest pork chop recipe (mostly due to the butter), but it sure was tasty! Its not like you would eat it every night!

Famous Pork Chops

1 cup crushed butter crackers (I used Ritz crackers by suggestions from other cookers)
garlic salt to taste
ground pepper to taste
2 eggs (3 were suggested, but DEFINITELY not needed)
4 Pork chops (for 4 servings)
1/4 Cup of butter (1/2 a cup was suggested, but I even thought I could cut down the 1/4 cup!)

~ Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
~ Meanwhile, a suggestions was to "flash" brown the chops at high to med/high heat in olive oil to keep them moist.
~ In a shallow bowl combine crushed crackers, garlic salt and pepper; mix well. Beat eggs in a different bowl.
~ Dip pork chops in egg batter and then in the cracker mixture.
~ Place pork chops in a casserole dish and place chunks of the butter around the pork chops.
~ Cover with tin foil and bake for 40 minutes followed by 5 minutes uncovered of broiling to make them a little crispy!

We had this dish with mashed potatoes and green beans. SO YUMMY!
