These Southern Fried Pork Chops are coated in seasoned flour and fried until golden in corn oil. They're crispy on the outside and juicy inside, perfect for a flavorful, comforting meal.
Begin by thoroughly washing the pork chops. Pat them dry with paper towels to ensure they are completely dry. This step is crucial for the seasoning to adhere properly.
Season the pork chops evenly with 1 teaspoon of Rosamae Seasonings Seasoning Salt. Let them rest for a few minutes to allow the seasoning to penetrate.
Pour approximately 1 1/2 cups of corn oil into a large frying pan. The oil should be deep enough to partially submerge the chops. Heat the oil over a medium-high setting. The ideal temperature for frying is around 350°F (175°C).
In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of Seasoning Salt and 2 1/2 teaspoons of Granny's Secret Fried Chicken Seasoning. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the seasonings.
Dredge each pork chop in the seasoned flour mixture, ensuring a thorough and even coating. Shake off any excess flour.
Once the oil is hot, carefully place the pork chops in the pan. Do not overcrowd the pan – cook in batches if necessary. Fry the chops for approximately 4 to 5 minutes on each side, or until they achieve a golden brown color and are cooked through.
After frying, transfer the pork chops to a wire rack set over a baking sheet or a plate lined with paper towels. This step is vital to drain any excess oil and maintain the crispiness of the coating.
