How do you tenderize pork chops before breading?
The fastest way to break down the meat is to flatten it with a meat tenderizing mallet or the bottom of a frying pan. You can also use a meat tenderizing powder on the chops, although this usually requires some resting time. Marinate the pork if you’re looking to add moisture to the overall meat.

Why is my panko soggy?
If you manage to keep the panko on the food, turning it over and over again will cause the panko to become soggy because it won’t cook evenly and having utensils pushed against it can also turn it soggy if they are even slightly wet, or push the panko into the food.
