My fiance loved it, but I found it bland, even with the lemon. Next time I will season the meat or use a better quality parmesan. I fried it right through and it was still nice and light. Thanks for posting. -
Delicious flavor in short order. What's better than that? I flattened the pork medallions, as the traditional milanese, and cut the cooking time accordingly. I also seasoned the pork lightly before step 2. I'll make this one again. Thanks for sharing it, dicentra. -
Tasty. Next time I will pound the medallions thin, because we just didn't care for the thicker texture. Also, I'm thinking if it were thinner I could get these to cook in the pan completely and stay crispy. They wound up getting a little soggy in the oven, but still tasted good. -
I got a zmail from Leslie telling me I just had to make this recipe because it was so easy and so delicious (my two favorite things). I did not change anything except I ran out of the Parmesan, breadcrumbs and egg white and had to use more. I will make this again and again. I served it with a spice packed side dish that really complemented it well: Recipe #8809 Thanks Diva! -
DH absolutely loved these. Said he now prefers this recipe to breaded pork chops.

<p>My rating system: (I don't like giving bad reviews, so if I don't like it, I'll just not review it.) <br /><br />5 Stars OMG, this is one of the most amazing things I've ever eaten! I can't stop eating it, and I've eaten myself into a food coma. <br /><br />4 Stars The recipe is wonderful as is. I can't think of a single improvement and I will most likely make it again. <br /><br />3 Stars This needed a little *something*something*. I might make it again, but will add my own improvements if I do. <br /><br />I love to eat! And I love to cook. I tend to take over the kitchen when I get in there. Even the dog knows the command get outta my kitchen! LOL. Cooking for other people and trying new recipes or foods is FUN! I have a small (but growing quickly!!) cookbook collection and one of my favorite things to do is to read recipes and plan meals. Rachael Ray, Horn of the Moon and Moosewood are favorites of mine. <br /><br />We spend a lot of time outdoors camping, hiking and backpacking. Yup. I cook in the woods too! I've made deals with my hiking buddies... If they carry in my food, I'll cook for them. I recently published a backpacking cookbook.
