Ingredients
  

4 bone-in or boneless pork chops (about 1 inch thick)

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 large eggs

1 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko for extra crunch)

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper to taste

1/2 cup buttermilk

1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Olive oil (for frying)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Pork Chops: Start by patting the pork chops dry with paper towels. This will help the breading stick better. Season both sides of each pork chop with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

    Set Up the Breading Station: In three separate shallow dishes, set up your breading station. In the first dish, place flour seasoned with a pinch of salt and pepper. In the second dish, whisk together eggs and buttermilk until well combined. In the third dish, mix breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, and Italian seasoning.

      Bread the Pork Chops: Dredge each pork chop first in the flour, coating completely and shaking off any excess. Next, dip it into the egg mixture, allowing the excess to drip off, and finally press it firmly into the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring it’s well coated on all sides. Set aside on a plate.

        Fry the Pork Chops: In a large skillet, heat about 1/4 inch of olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, carefully add the breaded pork chops in batches, avoiding overcrowding. Fry for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 145°F).

          Drain Excess Oil: Once cooked, transfer the pork chops to a wire rack over a baking sheet to drain excess oil. Alternatively, you can place them on a plate lined with paper towels.

            Serve: Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Pair with your favorite side dishes, like mashed potatoes or a fresh salad. Enjoy your crispy, flavorful pork chops!
