Panko, coarse Japanese bread crumbs, give these baked pork chops wonderful crispness. Serve them immediately for the best texture.

Ingredients 4 spray(s) cooking spray      1 pound(s) uncooked lean boneless pork chop(s), four 4 oz chops    1/2 cup(s) all-purpose flour    3/4 tsp table salt, or to taste    1/2 tsp black pepper, or to taste      1 large egg(s)      3 Tbsp fat free skim milk    1 1/2 tsp Dijon mustard, or to taste    1/2 cup(s) dried plain breadcrumbs, panko-variety (see note)      1/2 medium lemon(s), cut into 4 wedges    Instructions Preheat oven to 400°F. Coat a nonstick baking sheet with cooking spray. Place pork chops between 2 sheets of waxed paper; pound to 1/4-inch thickness with a rolling pin. On a plate, combine flour, salt and pepper. Beat egg in a shallow bowl; stir in milk and mustard. Place panko on a plate. Dip chops, one at a time, in flour mixture to lightly dust both sides; shake off excess. Dip each chop in egg batter and then lightly coat both sides with panko. Place on prepared baking sheet; lightly coat with cooking spray. Bake for 8 minutes; flip and bake until cooked through, about 5 to 7 minutes more. (Coat with cooking spray and broil for a minute or two if you like the coating extra crisp.) Serve with lemon wedges. Yields 1 chop per serving. Notes Panko is available in the Asian sections of supermarkets; substitute coarse bread crumbs if desired. Add some cayenne pepper to the bread crumb mixture, if desired. You can also cook these in batches in a nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray.

Ham and cheese gets sophisticated with the addition of rosemary and Gruyere. It’s part French, part Swiss and totally delicious.

Ingredients 2 tsp low fat cream cheese    2 tsp Dijon mustard    1 tsp rosemary, fresh, minced    1/4 cup(s) (shredded) Swiss cheese, or Gruyere cheese    1/4 cup(s) (shredded) part-skim mozzarella cheese    3 oz extra lean 4% fat deli-sliced ham      4 slice(s) reduced-calorie whole wheat bread    2 spray(s) cooking spray    Instructions In a small bowl, combine cream cheese, mustard and rosemary. In another bowl, combine both types of cheese. Place bread on a flat surface and evenly divide cream cheese mixture across all four bread slices. Top each of two bread slices with 2 tablespoons Gruyere mixture and 1 1/2 ounces ham; sprinkle each with another 2 tablespoons Gruyere mixture. Cover sandwiches with remaining bread slices, spread-side down. Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and set over medium heat. When hot, cook sandwiches until cheese is melted, pressing down a few times, about 3 to 5 minutes per side. Yields 1 sandwich per serving.
