Our mother started doing this when the commercial crumb mixes first came out, but she did not want to spend the money for them. I sometimes use herbes de Provence or whatever gravs my attention, instead of garlic. Also, to reduce fat, try coating the chops or chicken with buttermilk (commercial, not milk with vinegar). The buttermilk coats the meat beautifully and gives the crumbs something to stick to, at a calorie saving.

Wow, what a fantastic way to have breaded crispy chops without first having to fry them. Mine were from Costco and were very thick, but turned out tender and crispy. DH really thought they were fried. This may become my new breaded chop recipe as it is so much less messy than frying. Just a word of caution; if you're planning to save the leftover crumb mixture for another use, don't put the chops into all of it when you're breading them---just use what you need as you go along. Thanks!
