AKA Chicken Fried Pork Chops

  • 2 to 4 thin Pork chops
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 1 egg
  • 2 to 3 TBS. milk

Mix the following to pre-season the pork chops:

  • 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. fine black pepper

Mix the flour, salt and black pepper in a plastic bag and set aside.  Beat the egg with the milk in a bowl.

Sprinkle the pork chops with garlic powder mix but only on one side because they are thin.  These pork chops are about 1/4″ thick at the bones and taper to almost paper thin at the ends. Leave them for a few minutes to absorb the seasonings or until ready to cook.     

Put the pork chop in the bag one at a time to dredge in flour.  Dip in the egg mixture then dredge again with flour.  Leave the chops for a few minutes on a wire rack or plate to absorb the moisture on the pork chops before frying.

Fry in 1/4 inch deep cooking oil on medium-high heat for 2 minutes, then flip and fry the other side for another 4 minutes. Turn over again and fry for another 2 minutes.  I do this so the flour fries evenly.  You may just fry one side for 4 minutes and the other side for 4 more minutes.
