Becca's Chicken-Fried Pork Chops
Becca's Chicken-Fried Pork Chops requires approximately 35 minutes from start to finish. This recipe serves 4. One serving contains 688 calories, 17g of protein, and 22g of fat. It works well as a reasonably priced main course. A mixture of eggs, potato flakes, garlic powder, and a handful of other ingredients are all it takes to make this recipe so scrumptious. To use up the saltine crackers you could follow this main course with the Caramel Crack Candy Ice Cream as a dessert.
Instructions
In a shallow bowl, mix 1 1/2 cup of flour, paprika, and garlic powder. In a second shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until thoroughly blended. In a third bowl, combine the crushed cracker crumbs, potato flakes, and 1/2 cup of flour.
With a fork, prick the pork chops thoroughly to tenderize the meat. Season the chops with salt and pepper.
Gently press the pork chops into the flour to coat, and shake off the excess flour. Dip into the beaten egg mixture, then press each chop into the cracker crumb mixture. Gently toss between your hands so any crumbs that haven't stuck can fall away
Heat the oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat, and gently place the pork chops into the hot oil. Fry the chops until the meat is no longer pink in the center and the crust is crisp and golden brown, about 5 minutes per side.
Remove the chops from the pan, and drain the excess oil on paper towels.
Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Riesling
Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Riesling are my top picks for Pork Chops. Chardonnay suits simple chops or chops in a butter or cream sauce, dry riesling complements sweet additions like honey mustard or apples, and pinot noir is a safe bet for pork dishes in general. The Antica Chardonnay (Mountain Select) with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 29 dollars per bottle.
