cup fine dry bread crumbs  
tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan  
0 ounces (about 3) medium tomatoes, seeded and finely diced

cup peanut oil, for frying  
ounces (about 4 cups) baby spinach leaves, washed and dried.

. Place the chops between two pieces of plastic wrap. Using a mallet or rolling pin,  
beat around the bone, turning once, until the meaty part of the chop is half as thick.  
2
. In a wide, shallow bowl, combine the egg, mustard, oregano, and salt and pepper  
to taste. Beat with a fork until blended. In another wide, shallow bowl, combine the  
bread crumbs with Parmesan. Press each chop into the egg mixture, coating each side.  
Then dip each into the bread crumbs, covering them evenly. Set aside on a rack or plate.  
3
. In a large bowl, combine the tomato, garlic, olive oil and lemon juice. Season with  
salt and pepper to taste, and stir to blend; set aside.

. Place a large skillet over medium heat. Add the peanut oil, and heat just until a bread  
crumb sizzles when dropped into the oil; do not overheat. Add the chops. Cook, turning  
once, until deep golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes a side.  
5
. Transfer the chops to two plates. Toss the spinach in the tomato mixture until it is  
well coated, and place equal portions of salad over each crispy chop.
