This is Day Five of our One Month Grocery Shopping Strike!
We had a family pack of pork loin chops in our freezer, so I decided to make crusted pork chops using cracker crumbs from our pantry, with a side salad – Pre-Spring Salad – served with oil and balsamic vinegar.
Type: Main Dish Recipe
Serve With: Pre-Spring Salad & crusty Italian bread
Prep Time: 10 minutes

- 1/4 tsp paprika
- 1/4 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Instructions:
- Pre-heat large frying pan to medium heat with 1 1/2 tbsp olive oil.
- Crush crackers in a resealable plastic bag with a mallet or rolling pin to a crumb-like consistency.
- Pour crumbs into a large dinner sized plate or use a casserole dish. Add spices and mix evenly.
- Completely coat pork loin chops on all sides with cracker crumbs and place in frying pan, ensuring you don’t overcrowd the pan.
