Polish pork chops in marinade and breading: how to diversify a familiar dish

In Polish cuisine, one of the most famous dishes is chops, which differ significantly from ours in terms of cooking technology. The fact is that before frying, the meat undergoes a whole preparation: first, it is marinated in a milk marinade, and then thoroughly breaded in flour, eggs, and breadcrumbs. These chops are extremely tender, soaked, and with a very crispy crust.
