Pork Chop Sandwich - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    6 -8 center-cut pork loin chops, closely trimmed
    mixed spice
    2 tablespoons kosher salt
    2 tablespoons Hungarian paprika
    2 teaspoons garlic powder
    1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
    1 1/2 - 2 cups all-purpose flour
    3 eggs, lightly beaten (can use just the whites)
    1 1/2 - 2 cups breadcrumbs (Panko or crushed herb croutons)
    vegetable oil
    6 -8 buns (Hamburger will work, but I prefer Kaiser rolls)
    salt and pepper (shouldn't need much)
    mustard, of your choice
    mayonnaise or salad dressing
    onion, slices to garnish
    tomatoes, slices to garnish
    lettuce, leaaves to garnish
Preparation
    Preheat oil in heavy skillet over medium-high heat.
    Mix the flour and spices together for a dredge and place in a pie pan or similar flat vessel. I like mine spicy, so feel free to adjust the spices to fit your tastes.
    Place beaten eggs in second pie pan.
    Place breadcrumbs in third pie pan.
    Place chops between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound until they are roughly 1/2\" thick. I actually use my 48 needle meat tenderizer and dredge the chops in the flour/spice mixture prior to tenderizing to force some of the spices into the meat.
    Dredge chop in flour/spice mixture.
    Dip into beaten eggs, making sure both sides are well coated.
    Dredge in the breadcrumbs, thoroughly coating both sides.
    Place chop in pan, frying 3-4 minutes per side, until GBAD (golden brown and delicious).
    Drain briefly on paper towels or cake rack in a coookie sheet.
    Place on bun with condiments and garnishes of your choice. Traditional is yellow mustard, onion slice, tomato slice and lettuce. My brother likes applesauce, but then, he puts catsup on tacos, so what does he know? ;).
