Recipe by Anna Watson Carl Get in the Oktoberfest spirit (without flying to Germany) with this festive dinner.

Ingredients

  • 2 5-oz. boneless pork chops, halved lengthwise (to make 4 thin chops)
  • 1 c. red wine vinegar, divided
  • 1/2 c. mayonnaise
  • 4 tsp. lemon zest, divided
  • 1 tbsp. lemon juice
  • kosher salt
  • Black pepper
  • 2 c. thinly sliced red cabbage
  • 1/2 apple, sliced into matchsticks
  • 2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 Eggs, beaten
  • 1 c. panko bread crumbs
  • 3 tsp. thyme leaves
  • 1/4 c. vegetable oil
  • 1 c. mixed baby greens
  • Lemon wedges, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Place pork chops in a glass baking dish. Pour all but 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar over pork and let sit 15 minutes.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon lemon zest and juice, and garlic. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. In a large bowl, toss together cabbage, apple, remaining 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar, and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Place pork on a sheet of parchment paper and cover with another sheet of parchment paper. Using a meat tenderizer (or a small heavy saucepan), pound pork to 1/2" thickness.
  5. Place eggs in a shallow bowl. In a second shallow bowl, combine panko, 3 teaspoons lemon zest, and thyme leaves. Season generously with salt and pepper.
  6. One at a time, dip pork slices in eggs, then in panko mixture, using your fingers to press panko mixture onto pork. Place breaded pork chops on a baking sheet.
  7. Heat oil in a large, deep-sided skillet over medium-high heat. Cook pork chops, two at a time, until golden brown and cooked through, 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet.
  8. Toss baby greens into cabbage slaw and serve with pork, lemon aioli, and lemon wedges.
