Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Pork Chops
Season the pork chops with salt and pepper on both sides. Set up a breading station with flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs in separate shallow dishes.
Bread the Chops
Dredge each pork chop in flour, shaking off the excess. Dip into the beaten eggs, then coat thoroughly with breadcrumbs.
Fry the Chops
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the breaded pork chops and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and place on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
Assemble the Dish
Place a bed of the dressed arugula on each plate. Top with the fried pork chop, a generous spoonful of tomato chutney, and slices of fresh mozzarella.
