Jeff's Low-carb "Breaded" Pork Chops

This recipe was born one evening when I was about to make pork chop parmesan and realized that I had no tomato sauce. My wife suggested I use wheat bran for breading. I took that suggestion and ran with it. The result was a moist and tasty chop that rivals "real" breaded chops. This breading could probably be used on chicken as well although I have not tried it. NOTE: The exact amounts of soy powder and wheat bran are not important but the ratio is. a 1:1 ratio results in too much of a soy taste. 2 parts of wheat bran to 1 part of soy powder yields a fine taste.

4           Pork chops (any cut, with or without the bones)
1           Egg
3    tbl    Soy powder
6    tbl    Wheat bran
            Garlic salt and pepper to taste
	    Olive (or other cooking) oil

Combine soy powder, wheat bran, garlic salt and pepper in a
shallow dish or bowl.  In a separate bowl, beat the egg well.
Dry chops with paper toweling, dip in egg then coat on both
sides with breading mixture.  Heat oil in a non-stick skillet
and fry chops on one side until about half cooked (6-12 minutes
depending on thickness).  Carefully turn and continue cooking
until the chops are done.  For best results, TURN ONLY ONCE.
