Step 1: Prep the Pork Chops

Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

Step 2: Prepare the Coating

In a shallow dish, mix together flour, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs and buttermilk until fully combined.

Step 3: Bread the Pork Chops

Dip each pork chop into the egg mixture, coating thoroughly.
Then dredge it in the seasoned flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure an even coating.

Step 4: Fry to Perfection

In a large skillet, heat about ½ inch of vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot (around 350°F/175°C), carefully place the pork chops into the pan.
Fry for 4–5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).

Step 5: Drain and Serve

Transfer pork chops to a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil.
Serve hot with your favorite sides like mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, or green beans.
