For the Dredging
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp. seasoned salt
  • 1 tsp. black pepper
  • to taste cayenne pepper
For Cooking
  • 1/2 cup canola oil
  • 1 Tbsp. butter
  • to taste extra salt and pepper

Equipment

Method
 

  1. Salt and pepper both sides of the pork chops.
  2. Combine all dry ingredients for dredging. Dredge each side of the pork chops in the flour mixture, then set aside on a plate.
  3. Heat canola oil over medium to medium-high heat. Add butter. When the butter is melted and the butter/oil mixture is hot, cook 3 pork chops at a time. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes on the first side, and 1 to 2 minutes on the other side. Ensure no pink juices remain. Remove to a plate and repeat with remaining pork chops.
