Ingredients

Bran Flake Schnitzel

1 lbs or less, my package was actually .7 thin cut pork loin chops (4 chops)
3 cups 120g Generic Bran Flakes cereal
Black Pepper
Non-Stick cooking spray

Lemon wedge ketchup

1 can chicken broth
2 tablespoon whole wheat flour
2 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon ground sage
punch of black pepper
juice of ½ lemon not sure I'll do again-makes it too tart for my taste
½ tablespoon molasses really only to combat the lemon tart

Instructions

Bran Flake Schnitzel

Cut all visible fat from the pork chops. Lay between two pieced of wax paper or saran wrap and pound thin. About ¼ of an inch.
Place the cereal and a pinch or two of black pepper in a large ziploc back and pound as well. You could run through the food processor or blender but I wanted larger panko style bread crumbs.
3 cups 120g Generic Bran Flakes cereal, 1 lbs or less, my package was actually .7 thin cut pork loin chops (4 chops)
Crack the egg in a bowl. Pour the bread crumbs on a plate.
Dip a flattened pork chop in to the egg and then place in the crumbs. Coat both sides. Repeat for the remaining 3 chops.
Heat a large non-stick pan or griddle on medium-high and spray with non-stick cooking spray. Cook the pork about 4 minutes until you see the edges starting to turn white and the crumbs on the bottom darkening. Flip and cook an additional 3 minutes. I did 2 chops at a time as to no overcrowd the pan.
Black Pepper, Non-Stick cooking spray

Lemon wedge ketchup

Whisk all together then bring to a boil in a small saucepan. Watch so it's doesn't boil over. Lower to medium-low until ready to use.
1 can chicken broth, 2 tablespoon whole wheat flour, 2 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon ground sage, punch of black pepper, juice of ½ lemon, ½ tablespoon molasses
I made this first and had it simmering while making the pork. We also used it over noodles. I should add the toddler loved those!
