Ingredients

  • 4 6 oz boneless pork chops
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 c. all purpose flour
  • 2 eggs beaten
  • 1 1/2 c. breadcrumbs
  • 2 teaspoons dried thyme
  • 3/4 c. vegetable oil

Instructions

  • Place the pork chops in plastic wrap. Using a mallet or meat tenderizer pound the chops until they are at 1/4 inch thickness. Remove the plastic wrap.
  • Place the flour in one shallow dish, eggs in another shallow dish, and the breadcrumbs, thyme, and 1 teaspoon of salt in a third shallow dish. Set aside.
  • Heat the oil in a deep skillet over medium high heat.
  • Working in batches sprinkle two pork chops with salt and pepper. Dredge them through the flour, shaking off any excess.
  • Dip the pork chops into the egg mixture and let any excess fall off.
  • Dredge through the breadcrumb mixture, pressing to make sure the breadcrumbs stick.
  • Pan fry the pork chops for 3-4 minutes per side or until golden brown.
  • Repeat with the other 2 pork chops.
  • Serve hot.
