Ingredients

2 tbsp olive oil
3 225g pork loin chops on the bone, rind removed
knob of butter
1 onion, finely sliced
125g chestnut mushrooms, finely sliced
1/2 tbsp Dijon mustard
25g panko breadcrumbs
50g cheddar, grated
pinch of paprika

  1. Preheat the oven to 200C/180c fan/gas 6. Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a high heat. Season the chops, then fry on all sides until golden. Transfer to a baking tray; cool completely.

  2. Meanwhile, melt the butter in the frying pan and fry the onions over a high heat  for 3 mins. Cover the pan with a lid, reduce the heat to low and fry for 10 -15 mins until softened and golden. Remove the lid, increase the heat to drive off any moisture, then add the mushrooms. Fry over high heat until all the liquid has evaporated.

  3. Spread mustard on top of the cooled chops, then spoon on the mushroom mixture. Sprinkle over breadcrumbs, cheese and paprika.

  4. Cook in the oven for 15 mins or until the crust is golden and the chops are cooked through. Serve with new potatoes and a green vegetable.

  5. This can be prepared in advance up to the end of step 3. Cover with foil and chill. To complete the recipe, double the cooking time.
