    I used Italian bread crumbs, pam instead of oil and cener cut boneless pork chops with all fat removed from edges. ****HUSBAND actually liked this and he HATES pork chops!!**** I wish they were more "crispy". Overall I would make again, just for DH. - 3/1/12

    I used a regular pork chop for this because that is what I had and cooked it on a rack on the baking sheet to let them drip. Took about 30 min to cook and turned out quite nicely. - 3/17/09
