  • 1 (12-oz.) package linguine
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 4 boneless center-cut pork chops (about 1 1/4 lb.)
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 1 cup Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup olive oil

  • 1 (26-oz.) jar tomato-and-basil pasta sauce

Preparation

1. Prepare linguine according to package directions; drain. Toss with butter. Set aside, and keep warm.

2. Place pork between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap, and flatten to 1/4-inch thickness, using a rolling pin or the flat side of a meat mallet.
