This is a lightly-seasoned dish that lets the flavor of the fish come through. Whatever you do, don't use a heavy hand with the salt and pepper.

I threw this together using a sweet bread dough that was new to me (i.e. untested) and the friends who were over LOVED it. Claire aptly named it "Breakfast In Bread" because it sort of had a sausage-biscuit taste.

This recipe was my Mom’s and was something that she whipped up quickly after a long day at work. It is very easy to make and doesn’t cost much either (buy the pork chops in bulk, and freeze what you don’t use). This meal is a nice change from the…
