PORK
Ants Climbing a Tree: March 5, 2013
Good with ground beef, but better, I think, with pork; and do try using hot chili sesame oil at the beginning and the end to bump up the heat (and the flavor) just a little bit.

2 boneless pork chops are pounded thin, marinated in buttermilk, then dredged in flour and panko crumbs and baked. Nice; but after that, the two chops – now four paillards, are turned into two very different dinners. First, a riff on the classic Midwestern pork tenderloin sammich, and then, open-faced pork parmesan sammiches with fresh mozzarella and basil from teh garden. Yum.
