Perfect Fried Pork Chops Recipes

FRIED PORK CHOP

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Combine flour, seasoning salt, salt and pepper in a paper or plastic bag. Place pork chops into the bag, and shake to coat.
• When the oil is nice and hot, shake off excess flour from pork chops, and fry in the hot oil. Cook on each side for about 4 to 5 minutes, or until golden on the outside, and juices run clear.

PERFECT FRIED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Mix milk with first amount of salt (2 teaspoons) and allow pork chops to soak in this mixture for as long as you'd like, about an hour to maybe four works well. Overnight soaking will result in too much moisture & your breading will fall off.
• Remove pork chops from brine, and set aside. Brine should be discarded.
• Mix all spices in with flour.
• Heat oil in pan.
• Coat each side of the pork chops, applying pressure to make the batter stay on during cooking. One coat is good for a thin layer of batter. For a thicker coating, dip them in a separate bowl of a little milk with an egg mixed well, and again in the flour.
• Make sure oil is hot. You can check by dropping a pinch of flour in, and it will sizzle if it is. Oil temperature should be around 375 degrees F, if you have an oil thermometer.
• Cook on each side 4-6 minutes on each side, or until meat is no longer pink inside. Chops with bones will take a bit longer, and we cook them on one side until blood starts to come out of the bone before flipping. If you have a meat thermometer, the inner temperature should be at least 160 degrees F.

PAN FRIED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Salt and pepper both sides of the pork chops.
• Combine the flour and some cayenne, salt and black pepper. Dredge each side of the pork chops in the flour mixture, and then set aside on a plate.
• Heat the canola oil over medium to medium-high heat. Add the butter. When the butter is melted and the butter/oil mixture is hot, cook 3 pork chops at a time, 2 to 3 minutes on the first side. Flip and cook until the chops are golden brown on the other side, 1 to 2 minutes (make sure no pink juices remain). Remove to a plate and repeat with the remaining pork chops.
• Delicious and simple! Serve with smashed new potatoes.

Steps:

• Rinse pork chops and pat dry with paper towels, making sure to remove all excess moisture.
• In a medium bowl, combine flour, seasoned salt, black pepper, steak seasoning, and salt to taste.
• Dip each side of the pork chops into the seasoning mixture, then set aside on a plate.
• Heat canola oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet and once it is hot (between 325-375 degrees F), add butter to the skillet.
• When the butter is melted, cook pork chops 2 to 3 minutes on the first side; 1 to 2 minutes on the other side.
• Dispose of the excess oil.
• Remove fried pork chop to a plate and repeat with remaining porch chops.
• Store them in an airtight container to eat them as leftovers on busy weeknights.

JULIE'S PERFECT PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Mix flour, seasoned salt, and pepper thoroughly in a wide bowl.
• Dredge each side of the pork chops in the flour mixture. Set aside on a plate.
• Pour oil into a frying pan over medium-high heat. Drop a pinch of flour in the oil; it will sizzle if the oil is ready. Add 2 pork chops and cook until golden brown on the outside and no longer pink in the center, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining chops.

PAN FRIED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Rinse pork chops, pat dry and season both sides evenly with garlic powder, salt and pepper.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook pork chops until bottom side is golden brown and seared about 1-2 minutes.
• Turn and cook on other side about 1-2 minutes before turning again. Repeat flipping the chops until they are deep golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 145°, 8-10 minutes (cooking time will depend on thickness of chops).
• Once pork chops reach desired temperature, add butter and thyme and continue to cook for 2-3 minutes, spooning the butter on top of the pork chops as they continue to cook.
• Spoon the butter-sauce from the pan over the pork chops one last time and place on a serving plate.
• Let pork chops rest for 5 minutes on a plate tented with foil, then serve. (Letting them rest allows them to become fully tender and juicy!)
