Fried Pork Chops

I was looking for a quick and easy way to cook pork chops.  This was very simple and tasted great.  As you can see, instead of the typical cooked vegetable, I chose to cut up pears as one of the sides.  Pasta salad is an easy side to make, just add Italian dressing, cut up pepperoni, cheese, cherry tomatoes, olives, whatever you like to cool noodles.  Mix and serve.

 Ingredients:

4 center-cut pork chops (bone-in)
2/3 cup vegetable oil (canola)
1 cup self-rising flour
salt
black pepper
paprika

Directions:

Generously coat salt, pepper and paprika on both sides of chops.

Place flour into a plastic bag.

Shake chops in bag to coat flour and then set aside in a plate for 5 to 10 minutes. Then shake and flour in bag a second time.

Pour oil into a 12 inch frying skillet. Turn burner on to medium high.

Once a piece of flour dropped into oil and it sizzles, place chops in and turn down to medium.

Let chops fry just a few seconds then turn over -- then again for a few seconds. This will be repeated approximately 3 times for turning to each side.

Once you see oil begins to stop sizzling, they are done and should be a golden brown. Do not get too dark brown or they will be tough.
