WHY YOU'LL LOVE THIS RECIPE
You can serve these pork cutlets like a classic “fried pork chop” dinner with mashed potatoes, slice them for sandwiches, or turn them into pork cutlet Parmesan.
INGREDIENTS FOR THE PORK
– Pork chops (boneless)
– Salt and pepper
– Garlic powder
– All-purpose flour
– Eggs
– Milk
– Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
– Canola oil
Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel. Season both sides with salt, pepper, and half of the garlic powder.
STEP 1: DRY AND SEASON THE PORK
STEP 2: SET UP YOUR BREADING STATION
In one bowl, add flour and seasonings. In another bowl, beat together eggs and milk. In another bowl, add seasoned breadcrumbs.
STEP 3: BREAD THE CUTLETS
Dip each pork chop into the flour first. Dip into the egg wash and let the extra drip off. Press into the breadcrumbs, coating both sides. Shake off excess crumbs.
STEP 4: FRY UNTIL GOLDEN
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches about 350°F. Fry pork chops in batches until golden brown on both sides.
STEP 5: DRAIN OR FINISH IN THE OVEN
If the pork chops cooked through, transfer them to a wire rack to drain. If thicker, transfer to a baking sheet and bake at 375°F for about 15 minutes.
PRO TIPS
- Season the flour for optimal flavor
