As an alternative to crispy fried food, F&W’s Kay Chun coats pork chops in unsweetened shredded wheat cereal and lots of seasonings, then bakes. Slideshow: Pork Tenderloin Recipes
How to Make It
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 450°. Set a rack over a baking sheet. In a medium bowl, combine the shredded wheat, 2 teaspoons of salt, all the spices and 5 tablespoons of oil. Mix well and transfer to a resealable plastic bag.
Step 2
Rub the pork all over with the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil; season lightly with salt and pepper. Put each slice of pork in the bag; shake to evenly coat and press to help the crumbs adhere. Transfer to the rack.
Step 3
Bake the chops for about 20 minutes, until golden and cooked through. Serve with lemon wedges.
Make Ahead
The shredded wheat coating can be refrigerated overnight.
