Ingredients

  • 1 package Smithfield All Natural Boneless Pork Chop about 1 ½ lbs
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • tsp all purpose adobo seasoning available in Latin/ethnic food aisle
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 2 cups panko breadcrumbs
  • olive oil spray, for air frying

Instructions

  1. Place each boneless pork chops between 2 sheets of waxed paper and use the smooth side of a mallet (or a rolling pin) to pound them until they're very thin. If you think they're thin enough -- pound 'em a few more times! The thinner the better.

  2. Place the cutlets into a dish and marinate with the olive oil, lime juice, garlic and 2 teaspoons of adobo seasoning. Set the other ¼ tsp of adobo seasoning aside.

  3. In a dish, whisk the eggs. Place the flour in another dish. Place the breadcrumbs in a third dish and mix in the ¼ tsp of adobo seasoning. Set the 3 dishes aside for a sec.

  4. Dredge the pork chops 1 at a time in the flour, then quickly dunk both sides in the egg mixture and then coat both sides in the breadcrumbs. Lay each piece on a plate until you're ready to cook them.

  5. Spray the breaded pork chops with olive oil spray on both sides, then air fry for 15-20 minutes at 350 degrees F, flipping half way through, until the milanesa are crispy and cooked through.

  6. Serve hot with your favorite Latin sides, like rice and beans.
