Bread the pork
Working one at a time, place a pork chop in the bowl with the flour and roll it around until it is lightly but completely coated. Shake off any excess flour. Dip the pork chop in the bowl with the egg. Allow excess egg to drip back into the bowl. Dip the pork chop in the toasted panko, rolling it around until it is completely coated. Shake off any excess panko and place the pork chop the June Air Basket set over the June Pan to catch any crumbs. Repeat with the remaining pork chops until all are coated.
