Crispy pork medallions



I'm always trying to find ways to make pork more interesting- I don't like it as much as any other meat but it's inexpensive and I do like to vary what I eat. I came across this recipe for crispy pork medallions, which you could also use with a pork chop or pork steak.

To serve two, you need:
2 pork chops or 4 pork medallions (as they are quite small)
2 tbsp Dijon honey mustard
1 cup breadcrumbs
1 tbsp chopped fresh thyme
1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
oil or Fry Light for frying

Preheat oven to 180C. Mix the breadcrumbs and herbs in a bowl and season.


You can use any mustard for this recipe - wholegrain would also work well - but I really love this Dijon mustard with honey.


Spread mustard over one side of the pork medallions


Coat with the breadcrumb mixture and repeat on the other side. Place on a baking tray lined with tin foil and cook for 15-20 minutes depending on the size and thickness of the pork.


Serve when the pork is cooked through and the breadcrumbs are crispy.
