| Salt | ¼ teaspoon |

Directions
- Place pork chops between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound until about ½- to ¾-inch thick. Season the pork with the herbs de Provence, salt, and pepper.

Side Suggestions: Baked Potato
Wash and scrub 2 baking potatoes (eg, Russet). Prick several times with a fork and then cook on high heat in the microwave for 8-10 minutes, flipping potatoes over half-way through. Serve each potato with a low-fat sour cream or other topping, and garnish with fresh chives.
