Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pork chops
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Whole milk
- 2 cups Unsweetened cornflakes cereal
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the pork chops on a cutting board and use a meat mallet to gently pound them to an even thickness, about 1/2 inch thick.
In a shallow dish, mix together the flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
In another shallow dish, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.
In a third shallow dish, crush the cornflakes cereal into fine crumbs and mix with paprika and oregano.
Dredge each pork chop in the flour mixture, shaking off excess.
Dip the floured pork chop into the egg mixture, allowing the excess to drip off.
Press the pork chop into the cornflake mixture, ensuring even coating on all sides.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the breaded pork chops to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes before serving.
