PANKO FRIED PORK CHOPS WITH TEXAS TOAST



Panko Fried Pork Chops with Texas Toast image

I absolutely love the fried pork chop from Bertha's Kitchen in Charleston. If you're ever in my neck of the woods, you've got to go there and try it! This sandwich is inspired by her fried pork chop, with my spin, of course. For that extra crunch, I coat the pork chops in panko breadcrumbs after they've had a dip in some seasoned buttermilk.

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Vegetable oil, for frying
Four 1/4- to 1/2-inch-thick bone-in pork chops (12 ounces to 1 pound)
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 large egg
1 cup whole buttermilk
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs
2 teaspoons Miss Brown's House Seasoning, recipe follows
8 slices Texas toast, buttered and griddled
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Pour the oil to a depth of 1 inch in a large cast-iron skillet with high sides. Heat the oil to 350 degrees F.
  • Meanwhile, sprinkle the pork chops with salt and pepper and set aside. Set up the dredging station: Place the flour in a shallow dish. Whisk together the eggs, buttermilk and mustard in a separate shallow dish. Combine the panko and House Seasoning in a third shallow dish.
  • Dredge one pork chop in the flour. Dip in the eggs, then in the panko. Place on a wire rack and repeat the process with the remaining pork chops. Fry the pork chops, in batches, until golden brown and a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest portion registers 145 degrees F, 3 to 4 minutes. Serve hot with the Texas toast.
  • Stir together the garlic and onion powders, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork chops: Look for pork chops that are at least 1 inch thick and have a good amount of marbling. This will help ensure that they stay juicy and flavorful during cooking.
  • Tenderize the pork chops: You can tenderize pork chops by using a meat mallet or by marinating them in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, and herbs. This will help to break down the connective tissue and make the pork chops more tender.
  • Season the pork chops: Season the pork chops generously with salt, pepper, and other desired spices before cooking. This will help to enhance their flavor.
  • Cook the pork chops over medium heat: Cooking the pork chops over medium heat will help to prevent them from drying out. Cook them for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the pork chops rest: After cooking, let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help to redistribute the juices and make them more tender.

Conclusion:

Teary-eyed fried pork chops are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. By following these tips, you can make sure that your pork chops are juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give teary-eyed fried pork chops a try!
