Description
These golden crispy pork chops are pan-fried to perfection, offering a delightful crunch outside and tender, juicy meat inside. A simple yet flavorful dish that’s quick to prepare.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless pork chops, about 1-inch thick
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
Instructions
- Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels.
- In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Dredge each pork chop in the flour mixture, ensuring it’s fully coated. Shake off any excess.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Once the oil is hot, carefully place the pork chops in the skillet. Do not overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary.
- Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
- Remove the pork chops from the skillet and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, you can double-dredge the pork chops in flour, then egg wash, then flour again.
- Adjust seasoning to your preference.
- Resting the pork chops allows the juices to redistribute, keeping them tender.
