Ingredients

• 4 pieces Pork chops
• 2 cups Saltine crackers
• 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Milk
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0.25 cups Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat a large skillet over medium heat and add the vegetable oil, ensuring it evenly coats the pan.

Step 2

Place the saltine crackers in a resealable plastic bag and crush them into fine crumbs using a rolling pin or food processor. Transfer the crumbs into a shallow dish.

Step 3

In a second shallow dish, mix the flour with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

In a third shallow dish, beat the eggs and milk together until fully combined.

Step 5

Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels to ensure the coating adheres properly.

Step 6

Dredge each pork chop in the seasoned flour mixture, shaking off any excess.

Step 7

Dip each pork chop into the egg mixture, ensuring an even coating.

Step 8

Press each pork chop into the crushed cracker crumbs, coating all sides and gently pressing the crumbs so they adhere securely.

Step 9

Place the coated pork chops into the hot skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the crust is golden brown and the internal temperature of the meat reaches 145°F (63°C).

Step 10

Remove the pork chops from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Step 11

Allow the pork chops to rest for 5 minutes before serving to lock in their juices.

Step 12

Serve hot with your choice of sides, like mashed potatoes or a mixed green salad.
