Four ~1" thick boneless center cut pork chops,
1/4 c table salt
4 slices bread, 2 Tbsp cooking oil, 1/4 tsp of each salt and pepper, 3 minced garlic cloves, shallot.
Grated parmesan cheese, thyme and parsley.
Flour, 3 egg whites, dijon mustard.

Steps:

Brine chops for just 30 minutes in salt dissolved in 4 cups of water. Tear up bread and crumb in electric chopper with short pulses. Stir in salt, pepper, oil, shallot and garlic and spread on cookie sheet. Toast at 350 for 15 minutes until brown. May have to stir. Remove, let cool and add parsley, thyme and parmesan. Three dredging pans: plain flour, egg whites (or whole eggs) mixed with mustard plus more flour (makes it sticky), and bread crumbs. Coat chops in that order and place on wire oven rack. Bake at 425 for 20 minutes to reach 150F internal; longer if necessary. Let stand for a few minutes, serve.
