Corn Flake Pork Chops
Ingredients
2 cups corn flakes cereal
large zip-top bag
1 egg, beaten (or 1/4 cup egg substitute)
4 boneless pork chops (1 1/2 lb)
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
4 tablespoons herb garlic butter
Steps
1. Place corn flakes cereal in large zip-top bag and crush, using fingers. Place egg in medium bowl. Sprinkle pork chops with seasoned salt.
