Eclair Cake
2 (3.5 ounce) packages instant french vanilla or cheesecake pudding mix
Oatmeal muffins
1 cup quick-cooking oats
1 cup buttermilk
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions
Smothered Pork Chops
4 pork chops marinated in Sesame Ginger Marinade
Breading
1 cup Italian Bread Crumbs
1 /4 cup dried chopped onion
1 tsp (approx) Johnny Seasoning Salt (or other seasoning salt)
Place breading on plate and add still wet pork chops one at a time to breading and press each side to get breading to stick. Once breaded leave on plate for approximately 30 minutes to get to room temperature.
Topping
1 med onion chopped (medium sized pieces)
1 Tblspn butter
1/4 cup apple juice
1 Tblspn maple syrup
1 apple cored sliced (medium slices)
1/3 cup cream cheese
While waiting for pork chops melt butter in frying or sauté pan add onion and apples. Continue to fry until onions are translucent and apples softened. (I like my onions browned) Add apple juice, and maple syrup mix until coated and remove from heat. Add cream cheese and stir until smooth. Cover with lid or tin foil.
Whatever you plan on "frying" your chops on or in needs to be relatively hot the warmer side of medium heat. I stream a little bit of olive oil on it and spread to coat (on a flat griddle I use non stick spatula)..in a pan you can turn the pan until it's distributed.
Put the pork chops on the surface and cook for 6 minutes and carefully turn over to the other side. As hard as it is to wait, it is best to not checking the breading when it's frying more than just the edge. I used a box of stuffing and some frozen corn to complete the meal.
