Best Pork Chop Milanese With Arugula And Teardrop Tomatoes Recipes

PORK MILANESE

Steps:

• Season the pork chops all over with salt and pepper. Pulse the bread in a food processor to make coarse crumbs (you should have about 3 cups). Transfer the breadcrumbs to a shallow baking dish and toss with the cheese, parsley and rosemary. Whisk the eggs in a shallow bowl. Put the flour in another shallow bowl. Dredge each chop in the flour, then dip in the beaten eggs and coat in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing so the coating sticks.
• Heat 1/4 inch olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, cook the pork chops until golden brown and cooked through, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• Toss the arugula and tomatoes in a bowl with 1 tablespoon olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Divide the pork chops among plates and season with salt. Serve with the arugula salad and lemon wedges.

PORK MILANESE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Coarsely crush the panko into a large shallow bowl. Stir the cheese into the panko. Lightly beat the eggs in another large shallow bowl. Sprinkle the pork generously with salt and pepper. Dip the pork, 1 piece at a time, in the egg, allowing the excess to drip off, then dredge the pork in the crumb mixture, patting to coat completely. Place the pork on a small baking sheet.
• Heat 1/4 cup of oil in a heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add half of the pork to the hot oil and cook until golden brown and just cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to paper towels to drain, then transfer them to a clean baking sheet and keep them warm in the oven. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons of oil to the skillet and fry the remaining pork.
• Transfer the pork to plates and serve with lemon wedges.

PORK CHOP MILANESE WITH ARUGULA AND TEARDROP TOMATOES

Steps:

• 1 Remove the bones from the pork chops. Using a meat mallet, carefully pound the pork chops until they are uniformly 1/4 inch thick. Season the pork chops with salt and pepper. Dip each chop into the beaten eggs, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge each chop in the bread crumbs and set on a plate.
• 2 In a 14- to 16-inch sauté pan, heat 1/4 cup of the olive oil over medium heat until just smoking. Add the butter and allow it to foam for 10 to 15 seconds. Place the chops in the pan and cook until light golden brown on one side, about 5 minutes. Using tongs, carefully turn the chops and cook on the other side until light golden brown, about 5 more minutes. Add more oil if necessary, 1/2 tablespoon at a time, to avoid scorching the breading.
• 3 In a large bowl, combine the arugula and tomatoes. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons of olive oil, the lemon juice, and salt and pepper and toss to coat the greens.
• 4 Place one pork chop on each of four warmed dinner plates. Divide the arugula salad evenly among the plates, place a lemon wedge on each plate, and serve immediately.
