Lemon Basil Pork Chops

June 22, 2011 by Jaida 1 Comment

Pork Chops and I don’t have the greatest history. As many times as I have tried, I just haven’t cooked any that I loved. So, I stopped trying a couple of years back. And then, I saw this recipe on Melissa’s blog, I Was Born To Cook…and I knew I had to give it another try! These were so simple to make with only a few ingredients, and the lemony taste was perfect for my tastebuds! I probably overcooked them a bit, so they were a teeny bit tough, but not too bad. Next time I will decrease the time about 5 minutes or so. And I will be making them again!!

  • 4 boneless pork chops
Preparation

  2. Combine the egg and lemon juice in a shallow dish. Combine the bread crumbs, butter, lemon peel, and basil in another dish and mix well.
  3. Dip the pork in the egg mixture first, then coat each side with the bread crumb mixutre.
  4. Place the chops into the baking dish and cook for 22-28 minutes, depending on thickness, until the juices are clear.

Welcome!

As a busy wife and mom who also works a full time job, I try to have dinner done in 30 minutes or less so I can spend more of my evenings with my hubby and baby girl, so what you will find here are recipes that are mostly-healthy, quick and easy. Of course I have desserts, less healthy and more time-intensive meals as well (everything in moderation!), but all-in-all, you can count on weeknight friendly options, all made with love and dished up with a side of life, love, and family!
