PANKO FRIED PORK CHOPS WITH TEXAS TOAST



Panko Fried Pork Chops with Texas Toast image

I absolutely love the fried pork chop from Bertha's Kitchen in Charleston. If you're ever in my neck of the woods, you've got to go there and try it! This sandwich is inspired by her fried pork chop, with my spin, of course. For that extra crunch, I coat the pork chops in panko breadcrumbs after they've had a dip in some seasoned buttermilk.

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Vegetable oil, for frying
Four 1/4- to 1/2-inch-thick bone-in pork chops (12 ounces to 1 pound)
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 large egg
1 cup whole buttermilk
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs
2 teaspoons Miss Brown's House Seasoning, recipe follows
8 slices Texas toast, buttered and griddled
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Pour the oil to a depth of 1 inch in a large cast-iron skillet with high sides. Heat the oil to 350 degrees F.
  • Meanwhile, sprinkle the pork chops with salt and pepper and set aside. Set up the dredging station: Place the flour in a shallow dish. Whisk together the eggs, buttermilk and mustard in a separate shallow dish. Combine the panko and House Seasoning in a third shallow dish.
  • Dredge one pork chop in the flour. Dip in the eggs, then in the panko. Place on a wire rack and repeat the process with the remaining pork chops. Fry the pork chops, in batches, until golden brown and a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest portion registers 145 degrees F, 3 to 4 minutes. Serve hot with the Texas toast.
  • Stir together the garlic and onion powders, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

CREAM OF THE CROP VEGETABLE FRICASSEE WITH FRIED TOAST POINTS



Cream of the Crop Vegetable Fricassee with Fried Toast Points image

Provided by Robert Irvine : Food Network

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

3 tablespoons butter
1 cup finely diced onion
1/2 cup roughly chopped mushrooms
1/2 cup diced celery
2 teaspoons chopped garlic
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3/4 cup vegetable stock
2 cups baby carrots, blanched
1/4 pound peeled asparagus, cut into 1-inch pieces and blanched
1/2 cup blanched, roughly chopped green pepper
1/2 cup blanched, chopped yellow squash
1/2 cup blanched, chopped zucchini
2 teaspoons freshly chopped thyme leaves
2 teaspoons freshly chopped chives leaves
2 teaspoons freshly chopped parsley leaves
1/4 cup mascarpone cheese
1/4 cup heavy cream
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup canola oil
6 slices white bread

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, mushrooms, celery and garlic and saute until tender. Add the flour and form a roux, stirring to incorporate the butter and flour.
  • Slowly add the vegetable stock and stir until smooth. Continue to cook until the sauce coats the back of a spoon. If the sauce looks too thick you can add more stock or water to thin it down.
  • Add all the blanched vegetables to the sauce along with the fresh herbs. Cook for 5 minutes, gently stirring, over medium heat. Add the mascarpone and heavy cream and allow to reduce for another 5 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper. While the sauce is simmering, add the canola oil to a large skillet, over medium heat, until smoking. Slice the bread into triangles and shallow-fry on both sides until golden brown. Remove from the oil, drain on paper towels and set aside. To serve, place a ladle of vegetable stew into each large soup bowl and garnish with fried toast points.
  • Cook's Note: Blanching vegetable is a great way to speed up the cooking process of any dish and is very simple to do. Simply cook vegetables in boiling salted water until vegetables are still firm but cooked, then remove from boiling water and place into a bowl of iced water to stop the cooking process. Drain and set aside until ready to use.

LORILYN'S DEEP FRIED STUFFED FRENCH TOAST



Lorilyn's Deep Fried Stuffed French Toast image

A light & fluffy coating on thick slices of Texas Toast, filled with a lightly sweetened cream cheese with a hint of almond flavoring. This is a recipe I created this morning. DH & I were watching the Food Network last night & saw mention of a restaurant that serves deep fried french toast but no recipe or hints on how it was made. It sounded interesting enough to play around with so I browsed my kitchen & made a few notes on what to try this morning. I had Texas Toast & some cream cheese on hand & it occurred to me that I could make a filling to stuff the extra thick slices of bread with. This is the final result. We loved it & I hope you enjoy it too! *Note - I used a deep fryer for this but you could easily do it in a deep sided pan on the stove or a deep sided griddle. We tried these with my blueberry/raspberry syrup from Recipe #22066, with lazyme's Recipe #330075, store-bought orange marmalade and maple syrup.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 19m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
3 tablespoons powdered sugar
10 slices Texas toast thick bread (or other thick sliced bread)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
2 eggs
oil (for frying)
powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)

Steps:

  • In stand up mixer or in small bowl, combine cream cheese, almond extract and powdered sugar until fluffy.
  • Fit a cake decorating bag with a large tip (star or round) and fill with cream cheese mixture. Set aside.
  • Using a serrated bread knife, slice each piece of Texas Toast into half on the diagonal.
  • Along the newly cut diagonal edge, use the tip of the knife to gently make a one inch slice into the center of the bread, making sure the slice runs parallel to the top and bottom of the bread.
  • Insert the decorator tip into the opening & squeeze out about a teaspoon or so of filling. With a thumb & finger, gently pinch the opening to close it back up & cover the filling. (This could also be done with a ziplock baggie with a corner cut off, although not quite as easily.).
  • In mixer or another medium bowl, combine flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder and salt.
  • Beat in milk and eggs until batter is smooth. Pour into deep wide bowl or into a pie plate, for dipping.
  • Pre-heat deep fryer or griddle (about 350°) and when ready dip filled slices of bread into batter, turn once and place into fryer basket. (Mine will hold two slices at a time.)
  • Fry 2 minutes or until lightly browned & crispy looking then turn each slice over with a pair of tongs and fry the other side for 2 minutes or until done.
  • Remove with tongs to paper towel lined plate to drain. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired.
  • Repeat with the rest of the slices.
  • Serve immediately (careful - filling is hot) with your choice of syrups, jams or jellies.

FRIED CHEESE EGG TOAST



Fried Cheese Egg Toast image

Craving something new to shake up your breakfast routine? Love runny yolks? Then this fast and easy fried cheese egg toast recipe is for you. Be careful though, since it won't be easy going back to that bowl of oatmeal after this. While pan-frying cheese may not sound particularly healthy, as it caramelizes, it gives up a fair amount of butter fat, which stays behind in the pan. This might just be the new way to breakfast!

Provided by Chef John

Categories     100+ Breakfast and Brunch Recipes     Eggs     Breakfast Sandwich Recipes

Time 15m

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 ounce grated Cheddar cheese
1 pinch red pepper flakes
1 large egg
1 slice toast
1 teaspoon sliced green onions, or to taste
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Sprinkle Cheddar cheese into a nonstick skillet over medium heat, forming a circular shape. Fry until cheese is bubbling and starts to brown around the edges, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle red pepper flakes over the cheese.
  • Crack egg over the center. Poke the tip of your spatula through the egg white until some of it runs out and flattens over the pan. Cook until cheese is browned to your liking and egg white starts to set, 3 to 5 minutes more. Scrape up the sides using your spatula and fold them over the yolk. Continue cooking for a few seconds until egg is securely encased but still runny.
  • Transfer onto toast and top with green onions. Break open the yolk and sprinkle salt on top.

DEEP FRIED GRANOLA FRENCH TOAST



Deep Fried Granola French Toast image

Make and share this Deep Fried Granola French Toast recipe from Food.com.

Provided by Joseph M.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 40m

Yield 20 Pieces, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon table salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk or 1 cup milk, of choice
1/2 cup egg substitute or 2 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
10 slices Texas toast thick bread or 10 slices thick sliced bread
1 1/4 cups low-fat granola
coconut oil (for frying, refined) or frying oil, of choice
powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
syrup (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat frying oil to 365 degrees, if not in a deep fryer make sure you have enough oil to float the toast.
  • Combine dry ingredients (without granola) in a mixing bowl.
  • Add milk, egg, and vanilla to the dry ingredients bowl and whisk until well blended.
  • If your mixing bowl is not flat enough to allow proper dipping of the toast pieces, transfer your mix to a pie pan or other flat bottom dish.
  • Place granola on a plate or other dish to make coating toast easier.
  • Using a bread or serrated knife, slice each toast piece in half diagonally. Press lightly and let the knife do the work to avoid squishing the bread.
  • Dip the toast in the batter mix, flipping to coat both sides. Depending on preference you can let some batter drip off or whip off on edge of dish before next step, but be sure to leave enough to coat the surface and pick up the granola.
  • The goal of this step is to pick up just a little granola. Place the battered toast on the bed of granola, press lightly. Flip and press lightly again. You can also sprinkle the granola on or spread it out with your fingers for an even coating.
  • Place prepared toast in fryer basket and when basket is full (mine allows 4 pieces) place in fryer oil. You could add one piece at a time, just personal preference here. Do not overlap or stack, leave room, this is not like frying fries. You need room for these to float in the oil and for the oil to cook the edges.
  • Allow bread piece to cook 2-3 minutes or until golden brown (on the side in the oil). Flip and cook on the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  • Remove toast from frying and place on a plate covered with a paper towel. Optionally, sprinkle with powdered sugar while still fresh from the fryer.
  • Continue battering, coating, and frying until all pieces are done.
  • Also, when serving you can drizzle in syrup.

SPICE-RUBBED BACON WITH FRIED EGGS AND TOAST "SOLDIERS"



Spice-Rubbed Bacon with Fried Eggs and Toast

I love the smells of breakfast. If the smell of coffee and bacon doesn't wake your family and friends from a deep sleep and send them straight to the kitchen, I don't know what will!

Provided by Alex Guarnaschelli

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
6 slices thick cut bacon
1/2 loaf sourdough bread cut into 24 (2-inch long and 1-inch) thick rectangles or "soldiers"
4 eggs
Sea salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 220 degrees F.
  • In a small bowl, add the cayenne, garlic powder, dark brown sugar, black pepper and curry powder and stir to blend. Spread the spice mix on a baking sheet and put it in the oven for 2 minutes. Meanwhile, separate the bacon slices. Remove the pan from the oven and put the bacon slices, in a single layer, on the spice mix. Turn them over to lightly coat both sides of each slice with the spice mix.
  • Arrange the bacon in 2 large skillets and cook over medium heat until golden brown. Note: because of the brown sugar, the bacon is more prone to burning, especially if cooked too quickly over high heat. As the bacon is cooked, use a slotted spoon or spatula to transfer the strips to a paper towel to drain. Drain off any excess grease from the skillets but leave a small layer in each pan.
  • Raise the temperature of the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Arrange the bread on a baking sheet and put it in the center of the oven. When the bread is toasted, remove from the oven and set aside.
  • Return the skillets to the stove over medium-low heat and crack 2 eggs into each skillet. Do not overcrowd. Season them lightly with salt. Cook until desired doneness. Transfer the eggs to a platter and arrange the bacon and the toast around the eggs. Serve immediately.
