Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pork chops (boneless or bone-in)
- 6 cups Potato chips (plain or flavored, as desired)
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoons Onion powder
- 1 teaspoons Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons 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.
Step 2
Place the potato chips in a large resealable plastic bag and crush them into small crumbs using a rolling pin or your hands. Pour the crushed chips into a shallow dish or bowl.
Step 3
In another shallow dish, whisk together the eggs until smooth.
Step 4
In a third shallow dish, combine the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Step 5
Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel to allow the breading to stick better.
Step 6
Dredge each pork chop in the flour mixture to coat lightly, shaking off any excess flour.
Step 7
Dip the floured pork chop into the egg mixture, ensuring it is completely coated.
Step 8
Press the pork chop into the crushed potato chips, firmly pressing to adhere the crumbs on all sides. Repeat with the remaining pork chops.
Step 9
Once the oil is hot, place the coated pork chops into the skillet in a single layer. Avoid overcrowding the pan; you may need to fry them in batches.
Step 10
Fry each pork chop for 3-4 minutes on one side, then flip and fry another 3-4 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) and they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 11
Transfer the cooked pork chops to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Step 12
Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a crisp salad.
