Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 bone-in pork chops
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil (for frying)

Instructions

  • In a shallow bowl, whisk together flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cayenne, salt, and pepper.
  • In another bowl, whisk together eggs and buttermilk.
  • Season pork chops with salt and pepper.
  • Dredge each pork chop in the flour mixture, then dip into the egg mixture, and coat again in the flour mixture for a double coating.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry pork chops for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature of 145°F).
  • Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot.

Notes

  • For extra crispy pork chops, let them rest for 5 minutes after dredging to let the coating set.
  • Serve with white country gravy for an authentic Southern touch.
  • You can substitute boneless chops, but adjust the cooking time accordingly.
