Poppy Chops

• 8 New York (top loin) pork chops
• 2 eggs
• 3 tablespoons water
• 6 ounces cornbread stuffing mix
• 1/4 cup asiago OR Parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 tablespoons poppy seeds
• 1/4 cup butter flavor shortening

1. Beat together eggs and water in a small bowl until foamy. Pour into a shallow bowl.
2. Place stuffing mix in a self-sealing plastic bag; finely crush with a rolling pin. Stir in Asiago or Parmesan cheese and poppy seeds. Transfer to a second shallow bowl.
3. Trim fat from chops. Coat chops with crushed mixture. Dip into egg mixture and coat with crushed mixture again.
4. Heat half of the shortening in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it sizzles. Reduce heat to medium. Add 4 of the chops; cook for 4 minutes. Turn chops and cook about 4-5 minutes more or until internal temperature on a thermometer reads 145 degrees F, reducing heat as necessary to prevent overbrowning. Transfer chops to a serving platter; cover to keep warm. Repeat with remaining shortening and chops. Allow chops to rest for 3 minutes before serving.
