FRIED PORK CHOPS

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 bone-in pork chops
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 sleeves butter crackers
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon hot sauce
Vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • Place the pork chops between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet to an even 1/2-inch thickness. Use the tenderizer side for a few whacks at the end. Sprinkle both sides of the pork chop with salt and pepper.
  • Finely crush the butter crackers in a large plastic resealable bag.
  • In a small baking dish, combine the flour and cayenne. In a second dish combine the buttermilk and hot sauce. Add the crushed crackers to a third dish.
  • Dredge a pork chop through the flour mixture, dusting off any excess, then through the buttermilk, letting excess drip off, and then through the crushed crackers, making sure to coat on each side. Set on a sheet tray and continue with the remaining chops. Rest the chops for 10 minutes in the refrigerator. This will help the breading stick to the chops.
  • Fill a large high-sided skillet halfway with vegetable oil and heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted into the oil reaches 375 degrees F.
  • Using tongs, carefully place the pork chops in batches, into the hot oil. Fry, flipping once halfway through cooking (only if the chops are not submerged), until golden brown and fully cooked, about 8 minutes. Repeat with the remaining pork and serve.

PORK CHOPS IN CORN FLAKE CRUMBS



Pork Chops in Corn Flake Crumbs image

This is an exceptionally easy recipe which is tastes great. You can buy a box of Kellogg's Seasoned Cornflake Crumbs so you don't have to crush them. The box will last a long time. It's usually by the stovetop stuffing or bread. The amount of margarine is approximate - you may need to melt a little more so I would make sure that you have about 1 1/2 sticks on hand just to be on the safe side. If using a tub of margarine 6 tablespoons is a little more than 1/3 cup.

Provided by Yoly

Categories     Pan Fried Pork Chops

Time 20m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 large eggs, beaten
½ cup flour
1 teaspoon seasoned salt (such as Lawry's®)
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon black pepper
¾ cup panko bread crumbs
2 (6 ounce) pork chops, about 1/2-inch to 3/4-inch thick
¼ cup oil

Steps:

  • Place beaten eggs on a large plate.
  • Mix flour, seasoned salt, garlic powder, and black pepper on another plate. Spread out panko bread crumbs on a third plate.
  • Dip pork chops in egg, then in flour, again in egg, and finally in panko. Press lightly on pork chops so that the panko adheres. Set aside and let rest while oil is heated.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add pork chops and cook uncovered until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip pork chops over and cook until no longer pink in the center, 3 to 4 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Tips:

  • To ensure the pork chops are cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should reach 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, 155°F (68°C) for medium, and 165°F (74°C) for well-done.
  • For a crispier crust, fry the pork chops in a well-seasoned cast-iron skillet.
  • If you don't have self-rising cornmeal, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt to 1 cup of all-purpose flour.
  • Serve the pork chops with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, green beans, or coleslaw.

Conclusion:

Cornbread-crusted fried pork chops are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion.
