1. Trim the fat off the pork chops.
2. Lay the chops between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and, using a mallet or a rolling pin beat them until their thickness is reduced by half.
3. Beat the egg and place in shallow wide bowl.
4. Add the mustard, oregano, thyme,salt and pepper.
5. On a large plate, combine the breadcrumbs and the Parmesan.
6. Press each of the pork chops into the egg mixture, coating both sides.

8. Place them on a cooling rack to dry slightly while you heat the oil in a large frying pan until it sizzles if water is dripped into it.
