Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, mix together the paprika, garlic powder, ground black pepper, and salt.
Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over both sides of the pork chops.
Set up a breading station with three bowls. In the first bowl, add the all-purpose flour. In the second bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. In the third bowl, place the breadcrumbs.
Dip each pork chop into the flour, coating it evenly and shaking off the excess. Then dip it into the egg wash, ensuring it's completely coated. Finally, press it into the breadcrumbs, making sure it's fully covered.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, carefully add the pork chops to the skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
Cook the pork chops for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Remove the cooked pork chops from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve hot with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, coleslaw, or green beans.
