Almond Crusted Herb Pork Chops Review!

Almond Crusted Herb Pork Chops

I made these after making the roast that was so delicious. almond-herb-crusted-pork-tenderloin  I wanted to try the same recipe 


using pork chops instead. Don and Sammy loved these. These are as good as the tenderloin. Yes, I will make these again also. The only


difference is while baking, turn them over half way through. Now, I wonder how this would be on chicken. Will probably try that eventually. 

Ingredients:

I still had extra almond mixture left over from the pork tenderloin,  so I used it. It was just enough to fix 4 chops. 

Salt and pepper chops, then brush with dijon mustard.

Do both sides.

Put in almond mixture

Do both sides

Put in oven and cook at 425 degrees for 30 minutes.

Turn halfway thru

Remove from oven

Enjoy!

Recipe:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F

                 1 1/2 to 2 pound pork tenderloin

Season the tenderloin with salt and pepper then brush the entire outside of the meat with

                 Dijon mustard

Mix together:

                 1 cup chopped almonds

                 1/2 tsp nutmeg

                 1/2 tsp dried thyme

                 3 tbsp fresh chopped herbs of your choice (rosemary, chives, or oregano work well)

                 2 tbsp flour

Roll the meat in the almond mixture and roast uncovered on a wire rack for about 30 minutes or until the meat reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees F or greater. Let the meat rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

I served these with 

Bacon Shredded Brussel Sprouts
