Steps:
- Trim the thick white fat off the pork chops, cutting carefully around the outside edge. Lay the chops between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and, using a mallet or a rolling pin beat them until the meaty part of the chop is half as thick. You will need to beat around the bone, so turn them over once as you go.
- Beat the egg in a shallow wide bowl with the mustard, oregano, and salt and pepper. On a large plate or platter, combine the breadcrumbs with the Parmesan.
- Press each of the chops into the egg mixture, coating either side. Then dip the eggy chops into the bread crumbs, covering them evenly. Let them lie on a cooling rack to dry slightly while you heat the oil in a large frying pan. When a small cube of bread sizzles if dropped into the oil, then the oil is hot enough. Cook the chops until they are a deep golden color, about 5 to 7 minutes a side (depending on how thin you've managed to get them and how cold they were before going in the oil).
- Meanwhile, quarter the tomatoes and take out the seeds, then cut the shells into strips and dice them. You can take off the skins, too, if you prefer, by steeping the tomatoes first into a bowl of just boiled water for 3 to 5 minutes. Combine the diced tomato, minced or grated garlic, oil, and lemon juice in a bowl, and season well with salt and pepper.
- When the chops are ready, toss the spinach in the tomato mixture until well coated and divide the salad between 2 large plates, putting each chop alongside.

Tips:
- Select high-quality pork chops: Choose pork chops that are at least 1-inch thick and have a good amount of marbling. This will ensure that they stay juicy and flavorful during cooking.
- Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade helps to tenderize the pork chops and infuse them with flavor. Be sure to use a marinade that contains acidic ingredients, such as lemon juice, vinegar, or yogurt, as these help to break down the proteins in the pork.
- Cook the pork chops over medium heat: Cooking the pork chops over medium heat helps to prevent them from drying out. Be sure to use a meat thermometer to ensure that the pork chops are cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the pork chops rest before serving: Allowing the pork chops to rest for a few minutes before serving helps to redistribute the juices throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful pork chop.
- Serve the pork chops with a simple salad: A simple salad is a great way to complement the flavorful pork chops. The salad can be made with a variety of greens, vegetables, and fruits, and can be dressed with a light vinaigrette or lemon-tahini dressing.
Conclusion:
Parmesan pork chops with spinach salad is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The pork chops are tender and flavorful, and the spinach salad is a refreshing and healthy side dish. This recipe is sure to please everyone at your table.
