Dijon Pork Chops - South Beach Diet Recipe (Phase 2)
This recipe serves 6, so scale it as needed. I always make an extra so that there is one left over for lunch.
1 cup whole-wheat or stone-ground breadcrumbs
1 Tablespoon melted SmartSpread
2 Tablespoons Dijon Mustard (divided)
2 Tablespoons freshly grated parmesan cheese
1 Tablespoon chopped parsley (optional)
6 boneless pork loin chops
Salt and pepper to taste
Preheat the oven to 350 Degrees. In a small bowl, mix the bread crumbs, butter, and 1 T of the mustard, parmesan cheese, and parsley. Season the pork chops with salt and pepper. Spread the remaining dijon mustard on one side of each chop and place the chops (plain side down) on a baking sheet.
Divide the breadcrumb mixture among the chops and pat them into the mustard. Bake the chops until they are fully cooked and the breadcrumbs are nicely browned, about 20 - 25 minutes.
