Serves 6

Prep Time:
20 minutes

Cooking Time:
20 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 6 Ontario pork leg or loin cutlets or scallopine (about 400 g) (see tip)
  • 1/4 tsp (1 mL) each salt and pepper
  • 1/4 cup (60 mL) all-purpose flour
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 cup (175 mL) Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
  • 1/3 cup (75 mL) grated Parmesan cheese, divided
  • 1 tsp (5 mL) dried oregano
  • 1/3 cup (75 mL) canola oil, divided
  • 1 cup (250 mL) pasta sauce
  • 1 cup (250 mL) shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Chopped Parsley or basil

Cooking Instructions:

  1. Sprinkle pork scallopine on both sides with salt and pepper.
  2. Place flour in one shallow dish. In a second shallow dish, whisk egg with 3 tbsp (45 mL) of water. In a third shallow dish, combine breadcrumbs, 2 tbsp (30 mL) of the parmesan cheese, and oregano.
  3. Dredge each scallopine in flour, then into egg, letting excess drip off. Coat evenly with breadcrumb mixture and place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Repeat with remaining scallopine. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 4 hours.)
  4. In a large non-stick skillet, heat half of the oil over medium-high heat. Cook scallopine in batches and turning for about 3 minutes or until light golden, adding more oil as necessary. Place on parchment paper lined baking sheet. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 weeks.)
  5. Preheat oven to 350ºF (180ºC).
  6. Spread each scallopine with sauce and sprinkle with mozzarella and remaining parmesan cheese. Bake for about 10 minutes or until cheese is melted.

Tip: Thinly slice pork butt roast or pork loin roast into cutlets. Alternatively, you can use fast fry pork chops and pound them thinner with a meat mallet.
