Notes

Cooking Tips of Pan Fried Pork Chops Recipe:

Tip 1: Perfectly Marinate for Flavor
For the best flavor, marinate the pork chops overnight or up to 3 days. This allows the flavors to penetrate the meat fully, resulting in a more flavorful dish.
Tip 2: Achieve a Golden Crust
To achieve a golden crust on your pork chops, ensure that the pan is hot before adding the chops. Fry them on medium-low heat for 5 to 7 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Tip 3: Make a Creamy Sauce
For a creamy sauce to accompany your pork chops, use a roux made from flour and the used cooking oil from the pork chops. Fry the flour in the oil until it is golden brown, then slowly add milk and water until the sauce thickens.
