Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pork chops (bone-in or boneless, about 1 inch thick)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1.5 cups Breadcrumbs (Panko or regular)
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese (grated, optional)
- 0.5 cup Vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Set aside.
Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls. In the first bowl, add all-purpose flour. In the second bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. In the third bowl, combine breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese, if using.
Dredge a pork chop in the flour, coating it evenly. Shake off excess flour.
Dip the floured pork chop into the egg mixture, ensuring it's coated completely.
Press the pork chop into the breadcrumb mixture, coating all sides. Repeat the process with the remaining pork chops.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. The oil should be hot enough that a breadcrumb sizzles when dropped in.
Add the breaded pork chops to the skillet in a single layer (cook in batches if necessary to avoid crowding). Fry for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Transfer the cooked pork chops to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, vegetables, or a fresh salad.
