Recipes »Pork Chops with Sage and Lemon Breadcrumbs

pork chops with sage breadcrumbTangy and hearty, this Pork Chops with Sage and Lemon Breadcrumbs from Real Simple is one of the best pork recipes I've tried in a while. The pork chop is basically universally known as a difficult thing to prepare. They can often be dry and bland, but the rich sauce and cheese solve that problem.

Good Eats devoted an entire show to the notoriously difficult cut, which once according to Alton Brown pork once was “king of meat in this country and the richer you were the higher off the animal you ate. And since that pork chop came from the loin or back, you're technically eating high on the hog. Of course, firing up a pork chop today is kind of risky business, you know. That's because the modern American hog is like a supermodel—it's lean and clean and potentially as dry as a James Bond martini”.

I suggest if you're interested in the episode and more pork chop facts, see this site which has the transcripts and photos but you don't have to hear his annoying?voice!
