Gumbo Ya Ya: Yummy Pork Chops

Welcome to my site!

I'm Cindy, and I love to cook! And, I love to eat... hence the size of my rear end! I come from a long line of cooks. My great great Grandmother was a cook in the original Harvey Houses. My grandmother Julia was an awesome cook, and my mom was incredible. I owe my skills to these great women. Especially my Mom who said this to me about making gravy... "Cindy Lynn, wallpaper paste is wallpaper paste & gravy is gravy. Never the two shall meet!" Shall we say my first experience at making gravy left a little bit to be desired! Thank the high heavens my cooking skills have improved since then! Enjoy!

Yummy Pork Chops

Well, no photo for you today folks. Sorry!

These pork chops turned out much better than I anticipated, and were eaten before I even THOUGHT about posting the idea. I usually purchase some "Shake N Bake" and use that when making pork chops. But, I forgot to add it to the shopping list. They say that necessity is the Mother of Invention. Guess it's true! These were delicious!

I served with a salad and some green beans. Dinner was gone before I could blink an eye!

Mix the following together in a shallow dish:

Italian Bread Crumbs
Parmesan Cheese (the kind from a can)
Tony Chachere's Seasoning

Dredge the pork chops in the mixture, coating well on both sides and edges.

Heat some olive oil in a non-stick skillet. Pan fry the pork chops until done - about 4 minutes on each side, depending upon thickness. Mine were about 3/4" thick.
