Maple pork chops

These come from my simple and delicious magazine. They were on the same page as lime carrots which will be my next post. I actually really liked the sauce that went with the pork. If I ever get this converted to a 10 star scale, this would be a 9.



Ingredients

• 4 boneless pork loin chops (6 oz. each) I actually used about 6 thin little chops I had - totaling 1.5 lbs all together.
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 1 egg
• 1/4 tsp. ground ginger
• 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
• 3 Tablespoons butter

Sauce

• 1/2 cup maple syrup
• 1 Tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 2 teaspoon cider vinegar
• 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger

Directions

1. Sprinkle pork chops with salt and pepper. In a shallow bowl, beat egg and ginger. Place bread crumbs in another shallow bowl. Dip chops in egg mixture, then coat with crumbs.
2. In a large skillet, cook pork in butter over medium heat for 5 - 7 minutes on each side or until a meat thermometer reads 160. REmove and keep warm.
   
3. Add the remaining ingredients to the skillet; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until slightly thickened. Serve with chops.
