Elegant and Affordable: Buttermilk Baked Pork Chops

These pork chops are so simple, tender, and delicious that your guests will be wowed!  Plus, because of the simplicity of the dish, you can pair it with a wide variety of sides.  The recipe below is for 4 pork chops but you can very easily adjust for more or less people.  For instance I just made two for us the other night (as shown above).

Buttermilk Baked Pork Chops

• 4 boneless pork chops
• 1 egg
• 1 Tbs buttermilk
• 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
• Kosher salt, to taste
• Cracked black pepper, to taste
• 2 Tbs butter, melted

Preheat oven for 350 degrees.

Put melted butter in the bottom of a baking dish that can accommodate the number of pork chops you are making.

Whisk together egg and buttermilk in a shallow dish.  In a separate shallow dish, combine breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper.  Dip pork chops, one at a time, in the buttermilk mixture and then dredge in the breadcrumb mixture.  Place all the pork chops in the baking dish.

Bake for 30 minutes and then flip the chops over and bake for another 30 minutes.
