DEEP FRIED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Into a 13x9-inch baking dish, pour buttermilk. Add pork chops, turning to coat.
• In a large Dutch oven, pour oil to a depth of 2 inches, and heat over medium-high heat until a candy or frying thermometer registers 350°. In a shallow bowl, whisk together flour, seasoned salt, garlic powder, and chipotle chile powder.
• Working in batches, drain pork chops, and dredge in flour mixture. Carefully add to hot oil. Fry for 8 to 9 minutes or until chops are golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest portion registers 145°.

DEEP FRIED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Combine the first 7 ingredients and make sure all chops are evenly coated. Refrigerate for 2-6 hours.
• Preheat oil until Hot. (Oil should sizzle when sprinkled with a bit of flour when ready).
• Dredge pork chops in flour until completely coated. Cooking one chop at a time, drop into the hot oil until cooked through. ( about 4-5 minutes).

CRISPY PAN-FRIED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Put the flour in a shallow dish. Break the eggs into another shallow bowl and whisk with 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Mix the breadcrumbs with the oregano and thyme in a third shallow bowl.
• Dredge a pork chop in the flour, shaking off the excess, dip it into the eggs and then coat evenly with the breadcrumbs. Set aside on a piece of wax paper or baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining pork chops.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat with enough oil to come halfway up the sides of the chops (about 1/4 cup). When the oil shimmers, add the chops and fry until golden brown and crispy, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels briefly. Serve hot with cooked spinach and lemon wedges.

FRIED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Place the pork chops between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet to an even 1/2-inch thickness. Use the tenderizer side for a few whacks at the end. Sprinkle both sides of the pork chop with salt and pepper.
• Finely crush the butter crackers in a large plastic resealable bag.
• In a small baking dish, combine the flour and cayenne. In a second dish combine the buttermilk and hot sauce. Add the crushed crackers to a third dish.
• Dredge a pork chop through the flour mixture, dusting off any excess, then through the buttermilk, letting excess drip off, and then through the crushed crackers, making sure to coat on each side. Set on a sheet tray and continue with the remaining chops. Rest the chops for 10 minutes in the refrigerator. This will help the breading stick to the chops.
• Fill a large high-sided skillet halfway with vegetable oil and heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted into the oil reaches 375 degrees F.
• Using tongs, carefully place the pork chops in batches, into the hot oil. Fry, flipping once halfway through cooking (only if the chops are not submerged), until golden brown and fully cooked, about 8 minutes. Repeat with the remaining pork and serve.

HAM AND CHEESE-STUFFED PORK CHOPS WITH DIJON SAUCE (COOKING FOR 2)

• In shallow pan, stir flour, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Coat both sides of pork chops with flour mixture. Beat egg in shallow bowl with whisk to blend. Place bread crumbs in another shallow bowl. Dip pork chops into beaten egg; turn to coat. Dredge in bread crumb mixture, coating completely.
• In 12-inch skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add pork chops; cook 4 to 5 minutes or until golden brown, turning once. Transfer to lightly greased 15x10x1-inch pan. Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until pork is no long pink (at least 145°F).
• Meanwhile, in 8-inch skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add shallots; cook 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Add broth and wine; cook 10 to 15 minutes or until reduced by three-fourths. Stir in cream; cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened. Stir in mustard and parsley. Remove from heat.

DEEP-FRIED PORK CHOPS AND QUICK VEGETABLE SOUP

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the leeks, celery, and carrots, and cook, stirring, until softened, 10 to 12 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables, and continue to cook, stirring, until the flour reaches a light blond color. Add the tomato paste, and cook for another minute. Add the stock, and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally. Add the diced tomatoes and the potato, reduce the heat to low, and simmer until the potato is cooked through, about 20 minutes. The soup can be made up to 1 day in advance.
• While the soup is simmering, heat 2 inches of peanut oil in a large Dutch oven to 325°F. Place the flour in a large casserole dish, and season with salt and pepper. Dredge the chops in the flour mixture, patting off the excess. Place the chops, two at a time, in the hot oil, and fry until cooked through, about 6 minutes. Transfer the cooked chops to a paper towel lined baking sheet, and repeat with the remaining chops.
• Add the cooked chops to the soup and simmer over medium-low heat for another 30 minutes, or until the meat from the chops falls off the bone. During the last 10 minutes of cooking, add the lima beans, peas, corn, and green beans. To serve, ladle the soup into wide, shallow bowls, and garnish with the parsley.

KILLER FRIED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add pork chops; season with onion and garlic powder. Cook until pork chops are no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes per side.
• Transfer pork chops to a plate; top each one with 2 slices of Cheddar cheese. Place a bowl over the plate to trap in heat.
• Place bacon into the skillet; cook until crisp and no longer pink, about 6 minutes. Wrap 3 slices of bacon around each pork chop.

PAN-FRIED BREADED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Lay pork chops on a baking sheet, and season well on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Combine eggs and milk in a low, flat bowl. Season with salt, pepper and the small pinch of cayenne.
• Sprinkle flour generously over the chops on both sides, then shake off excess.
• Submerge the floured chops in the egg mixture, and turn them over several times to coat well. Leave chops in egg mixture for 5 minutes.
• Use your left hand to remove a chop from the batter and drain off excess liquid. Place chop on a baking sheet and, with your right hand, heavily sprinkle with bread crumbs on both sides. Repeat with remaining chops.
• Sprinkle each chop again with crumbs, patting with your hand to make sure crumbs adhere and coat well. Refrigerate, uncovered, until ready to fry.
• Set a wide cast-iron or other heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add clarified butter to a depth of 1/2 inch. When butter is hot, lay in the chops without crowding, and let them fry very gently, about 4 to 5 minutes per side, until beautifully golden brown. (Turn down heat if they seem to be browning too fast.) If your pan is small, cook in 2 batches and keep finished chops warm in a 250-degree oven.
• Blot cooked chops on paper towels. Transfer to a warm platter or individual plates. Serve with lemon wedges.
