Country-Fried Pork Chops

Perfect Country-Fried Pork Chops

I stepped back to my childhood with this Country-Fried Pork Chops recipe. Down-home comfort food. This is my Mom’s way of fixing pork chops to a “T”.

This is not low-fat!

I fried the pork chops in a cast-iron skillet just like Mom did!

The chops were done to perfection in the designated time, and the gravy was scrumptious! Nice crust, moist chops.

I served with mashed potatoes, corn on the cob and Southern Buttermilk Biscuits for a wonderful meal.

Ingredients
  • 6 pork chops
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 4 tablespoons oil
  • 2 cups milk
  • Kitchen Bouquet
Instructions
  1. Mix flour, salt and pepper in a plate or shallow dish. Dredge the pork chops in the seasoned flour (reserve unused flour).
  2. Heat 4 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet. When hot, add the flour coated pork chops and brown on medium-high. Turn and brown on the other side. Add 1/4 cup water. Reduce the heat, cover the pan and simmer for 30 minutes or until pork chops are done.
  3. Remove cover, increase the heat and recrisp the chops. Remove chops to a paper towel lined plate.
  4. Stir up any flour "crispies" to loosen. Add more oil if needed to make about 3 tablespoons.
  5. Add 3 to 4 tablespoons of the reserved seasoned flour to the hot oil, stirring constantly with a whisk until lightly browned.
  6. Add 2 cups of milk all at once and continue stirring until thickened and bubbly. If the gravy is too thick, add some water. Add a couple of drops of gravy coloring (Kitchen Bouquet) if needed to give the gravy a rich color.
  7. Season with salt and pepper. Serve the pork chops with cream gravy and don't forget the biscuits!

 

Enjoy!
