Ingredients
Instructions
-
Prepare the pork chops by seasoning them with some salt and black pepper on both sides.
-
In a shallow dish, combine the all-purpose flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the flour mixture.
-
In another dish, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. This will be the wet dredging mixture that helps the seasoned flour stick to the pork chops.
-
Dip each seasoned pork chop into the flour mixture, ensuring it is coated on all sides. Shake off any excess flour before dipping the pork chop into the egg mixture.
-
Once coated in the egg mixture, dip the pork chop back into the seasoned flour, making sure it is fully covered. Set the coated pork chops aside on a plate while you heat up the oil.
-
In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (180°C). You want enough oil in the pan to submerge the pork chops halfway.
-
Carefully place the pork chops into the hot oil and fry for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Make sure to cook in batches if needed to avoid overcrowding the pan.
-
Once the pork chops are cooked, transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil. Sprinkle with a little salt while they're still hot to add an extra burst of flavor.
-
Serve the chicken fried pork chops hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley if desired. Pair them with your favorite sides like mashed potatoes, green beans, or coleslaw for a delicious and satisfying meal!
