Ingredients

• 4 pieces Pork chops (bone-in or boneless, about 1 inch thick)
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Milk
• 1.5 cups Breadcrumbs (Panko or regular)
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese (grated, optional)
• 0.5 cup Vegetable oil (for frying)

Directions

Step 1

Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Set aside.

Step 2

Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls. In the first bowl, add all-purpose flour. In the second bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. In the third bowl, combine breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese, if using.

Step 3

Dredge a pork chop in the flour, coating it evenly. Shake off excess flour.

Step 4

Dip the floured pork chop into the egg mixture, ensuring it's coated completely.

Step 5

Press the pork chop into the breadcrumb mixture, coating all sides. Repeat the process with the remaining pork chops.

Step 6

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. The oil should be hot enough that a breadcrumb sizzles when dropped in.

Step 7

Add the breaded pork chops to the skillet in a single layer (cook in batches if necessary to avoid crowding). Fry for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).

Step 8

Transfer the cooked pork chops to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Step 9

Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, vegetables, or a fresh salad.
