Instructions

Pound the pork chops to about ½ inch thick, seasoning with kosher salt and pepper.
In one bowl, beat the eggs, and in another, combine the panko bread crumbs and grated parmesan cheese.
Dip each pork chop in the eggs, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, then fry the pork chops for 3 to 4 minutes per side until crispy and golden.
While pork cooks, place arugula in a bowl and toss with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Squeeze lemon juice onto arugula, add olive oil, and toss to combine, adjusting to taste.
Mix in shaved parmesan cheese gently, enhancing flavor and elegance.
Slice rested pork and serve elegantly over lemon arugula.

Notes

Ensure pork is cooked to an internal temperature of 145°F for safety.
For extra flavor, marinate pork in lemon juice for 30 minutes before breading.
Serve with your favorite white wine for a perfect pairing.
