Baked Pork Chops

You can really sink your chops into these—they’re made moist and spicy with egg whites, evaporated

milk, and a lively blend of herbs.

6 lean center-cut pork chops, ½-inch thick 1 egg white 1 cup fat-free evaporated milk ¾ cup cornflake crumbs ¼ cup fine, dry bread crumbs 4 teaspoons paprika 2 teaspoons oregano ¾ teaspoon chili powder 2 teaspoons garlic powder 2 teaspoons black pepper ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper ⅛ teaspoon dry mustard 2 teaspoons salt nonstick cooking spray, as needed

1.                   Preheat oven to 375 °F.

2.                   Trim fat from pork chops.

3.                   Beat egg white with fat-free evaporated milk. Place pork chops in milk mixture and let stand for 5 minutes, turning once.

4.                   Meanwhile, mix cornflake crumbs, bread crumbs, spices, and salt in small bowl.

5.                   Use nonstick cooking spray on 13 x 9-inch baking pan.

6.                   Remove pork chops from milk mixture and coat thoroughly with crumb mixture.

7.                   Place pork chops in pan and bake for 20 minutes. Turn pork chops and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until no pink remains.

 

Note: Try the recipe with skinless, boneless chicken or turkey parts or fish—bake for just 20 minutes.
