Mommys Pan Fried Pork Chops Recipes

MOM'S EASY PAN FRIED PORK CHOPS AND TOMATO GRAVY

Steps:

• In a small bowl combine 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, paprika and sugar.
• Dry pork chops with paper towels and rub spice mixture all over them. Set aside.
• In a large skillet, over medium heat, cook bacon pieces until crisp. Remove bacon to drain on paper towel, without removing the fat from your skillet.
• Depending on the amount of fat in your pan, remove some until you have enough fat to cook the pork chops in, 2-4 tablespoons approximately. We usually use some paper towel to soak some up, if necessary.
• Increase your heat a little and cook each pork chop until brown on one side only, 5 minutes.
• Remove pork chops from skillet and place on plate, browned side up. Wipe out your skillet if desired or necessary. We usually do.
• Reduce heat back down to medium and add oil. Heat until oil is shimmering or a drop of water flicked in it dances.
• Add mushrooms, onion, celery, and garlic and cook until tender, about 7 minutes.
• Add flour and stir constantly for 2 minutes.
• Add tomato paste and cook, continuing to stir for another 2 minutes.
• Stir in chicken broth, tomato sauce, thyme, bay leaves, and cooked bacon and bring to boil.
• Place pork chops, browned side up, in your skillet.
• Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.
• The timing will change depending on the size of your pork chops. Check to make sure your pork chops are cooked with a meat thermometer, about 150 degrees.
• Remove chops from skillet and add salt and pepper to the gravy to taste.
• Add more thyme, garlic, paprika if you desire.
• Remove your bay leaves.
• Serve gravy on top of your pork chops and some rice or mashed potatoes if you desire! Enjoy!

PAN FRIED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Salt and pepper both sides of the pork chops.
• Combine the flour and some cayenne, salt and black pepper. Dredge each side of the pork chops in the flour mixture, and then set aside on a plate.
• Heat the canola oil over medium to medium-high heat. Add the butter. When the butter is melted and the butter/oil mixture is hot, cook 3 pork chops at a time, 2 to 3 minutes on the first side. Flip and cook until the chops are golden brown on the other side, 1 to 2 minutes (make sure no pink juices remain). Remove to a plate and repeat with the remaining pork chops.
• Delicious and simple! Serve with smashed new potatoes.

PAN FRIED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Place flour in a shallow dish.
• Pat pork chops dry and season liberally with seasoned salt and pepper on both sides. Dredge the pork chops in flour, shaking off the excess.
• Melt butter and oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add chops to the hot skillet and cook until browned on both sides and a meat thermometer registers 140°F - 145°F (about 7-10 minutes per side). Smaller bone-in pork chops will cook in 5-6 minutes per side, so just keep an eye on your chops and use the thermometer to know when they're done. The internal temperature of the pork chops will continue to rise after you remove them from the pan.
• Transfer pork chops to a plate, tent with foil, and allow to rest for about 5-10 minutes before serving.
• Note: Depending on the size of your pan (and pork chops), you might need to cook the pork chops in batches of two. Just make sure that you don't overcrowd your pan by trying to squeeze too many chops in at once!
