Most of my recipes are born from my cravings.  And tonight I was craving something crunchy and smoky . . . so this worked out perfectly!  My whole family loved this!

6-8 thin cut, bone in, pork chops
1/2 cup flour, for dredging
3/4 cup dijon mustard
1/2 cup dry white win - I used Chardonnay
3 cloves fresh garlic - crushed
2 teaspoons liquid smoke flavoring
3 cups panko bread crumbs
3 teaspoons onion powder
1 2/ tablespoons parsley flaked
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Place flour into a plastic freezer bag.

In a shallow dish, mix together the next 4 ingredients.

In a separate freezer bag, mix together the last 5 ingredients.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees, then line 2 large baking pans with parchment paper.

Coat each pork chop with flour, then with mustard mixture, and then with the breadcrumb mixture.

Place on baking sheets and bake on center rack for 40-45 minutes or til well browned.
