Curried Panko Pork Chop Sandwich

I know I lost a bunch of people at "curry", but this is a spice blend I've been making for a while. Even my anti-curry family really likes this.

You'll see I made this into a sandwich, but also served another night solo and both were wonderful. Truth be told, the sandwich was my favorite though.

Ingredients:

• 8 thin cut pork chops, boneless
• 1 cup panko
• 1 1/2 teaspoon spice blend
• 2 eggs, scrambled

Spice blend:

• 1 teaspoon curry
• 3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon sea salt

Mix the panko and spice blend in a pie dish or something of the sort - set aside. Pour scrambled egg into another pie dish. Preparing the pork, dredge each side of the chop in egg, then do the same in the panko.

*In the case of the sandwich, I pan-fried the pork in a mix of olive oil and butter for 3 minutes each side (till browned and slightly firm). In the case of the solo chops, I pre-heated the oven on convection to 400 degrees for about 15 minutes. Both were great - just depends on your preference, but I do like the health benefits of the baked version.

Top with a little bar-b-que sauce or tonkatsu sauce like I did. I grew up on that stuff and it is so delicious!
