My husband and I live on a small farm with our two young sons. We're always blessed with plenty of zucchini from our garden in summer, so I try lots of different zucchini recipes. This is one of my family's favorites. —Diane Banaszak, West Bend, Wisconsin

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons plus 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon dill weed
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 6 boneless pork loin chops (4 ounces each)
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 2 medium onions, sliced
  • 1/4 cup warm water
  • 3 medium zucchini (about 1 pound), sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika

Directions

  1. In a shallow dish, combine the flour, 2 tablespoons cheese, salt, dill and pepper. Dip pork chops in flour mixture to coat both sides; shake off excess.
  2. In a large skillet, brown chops on both sides in oil. Top with onions; add water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 15 minutes.
  3. Place zucchini over the onions. Sprinkle remaining cheese over zucchini. Sprinkle with paprika. Cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes or until vegetables are tender and a thermometer inserted in pork reads 145°. Let stand 5 minutes.
