Steps:
- Put the flour in a shallow bowl or lipped plate. Break the eggs into another shallow bowl and whisk with the salt and pepper. In a third shallow bowl mix the breadcrumbs with herbs.
- Bread the chops. Dredge a chop in the flour, shaking off the excess, then dip it into the eggs, and finally coat the meat evenly with the breadcrumbs. Set on a piece of waxed paper or baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining chops. Heat a large skillet over medium heat with enough oil to come halfway up the sides of the chops, about 1/4 cup. When the oil shimmers, add the chops and fry 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels and serve immediately with lemon wedges.

PAN-FRIED BREADED PORK CHOPS
Look for beautiful good-quality pork, such as Berkshire, and ask for center-cut loin chops with bone. For the bread crumbs, use day-old firm white sandwich bread or French loaf, cubed and whirled in a food processor, for about three cups of soft, fluffy crumbs. Dry, fine store-bought crumbs will not yield the same result. Make sure to fry these chops very gently over medium-high heat, to allow the bread-crumb coating to brown slowly, creating a crisp, golden crust. Serve with a tart salad or braised greens, such as broccoli rabe.

Steps:
- Lay pork chops on a baking sheet, and season well on both sides with salt and pepper.
- Combine eggs and milk in a low, flat bowl. Season with salt, pepper and the small pinch of cayenne.
- Sprinkle flour generously over the chops on both sides, then shake off excess.
- Submerge the floured chops in the egg mixture, and turn them over several times to coat well. Leave chops in egg mixture for 5 minutes.
- Use your left hand to remove a chop from the batter and drain off excess liquid. Place chop on a baking sheet and, with your right hand, heavily sprinkle with bread crumbs on both sides. Repeat with remaining chops.
- Sprinkle each chop again with crumbs, patting with your hand to make sure crumbs adhere and coat well. Refrigerate, uncovered, until ready to fry.
- Set a wide cast-iron or other heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add clarified butter to a depth of 1/2 inch. When butter is hot, lay in the chops without crowding, and let them fry very gently, about 4 to 5 minutes per side, until beautifully golden brown. (Turn down heat if they seem to be browning too fast.) If your pan is small, cook in 2 batches and keep finished chops warm in a 250-degree oven.
- Blot cooked chops on paper towels. Transfer to a warm platter or individual plates. Serve with lemon wedges.
BREADED BAKED PORK CHOPS
This is a great, basic recipe for breaded baked pork chops. Feel free to experiment with different seasonings and breading. We just did a batch using honey-wheat bread crumbs which gave a slightly sweet taste that balanced our chosen Cajun seasoning.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Season pork chops with garlic powder and seasoning salt. Dredge chops in flour; shake off excess. Dip into beaten egg. Lift up so excess egg drips back in the bowl. Press into bread crumbs to coat both sides. Place the breaded chops, unstacked, onto a plate.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium-heat. Cook pork chops in hot oil until breading appears well browned, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer pork chops to a 9x13-inch baking dish and cover with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven until pork chops are cooked through, 60 to 90 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Tips:
- To ensure the pork chops are cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should reach 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, 155°F (68°C) for medium, and 165°F (74°C) for well-done.
- If you don't have panko breadcrumbs, you can make your own by pulsing regular breadcrumbs in a food processor until they are fine and crumbly.
- For a crispy breadcrumb coating, make sure the pork chops are dry before dredging them in the breadcrumbs. You can pat them dry with paper towels or let them air dry for a few minutes.
- To add more flavor to the breadcrumb coating, you can add herbs, spices, or grated Parmesan cheese.
- If you don't have lemon zest, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of lemon juice instead.
- Serve the pork chops immediately with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad.
Conclusion:
Pork chops with lemony breadcrumbs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The pork chops are juicy and flavorful, and the lemony breadcrumbs add a bright and tangy flavor. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
