Breaded Fried Pork Chops
These Breaded Fried Pork Chops are tender and juicy pan-fried chops perfect for family dinners. Breaded Pork Chop or Schnitzel as my husbands family calls it is one of my families favorite dishes.
What is Schnitzel?
Schnitzel is a dish my husband’s family loves. You make them with thin cut boneless pork chops, and pan fry them until golden brown.
Best Sides to Make with Fried Pork Chops
The best sides to go with breaded pork chops all depend on your personal preference. If you want to go the more southern route, you could serve them with a side of white gravy and mashed potatoes. Yum.
For a more German take, you could serve your Schnitzel with a side of potato cakes. My personal favorite. I have a quick and easy Potato Cake recipe that is perfect to make with leftover mashed potatoes.
What is the Difference in Schnitzel & Breaded Pork Chops?
In my opinion, there is really no difference in Schnitzel and Pork Chops except Pork Chop is wayyyy easier to say.
Best topping for Breaded Pork Chops?
I like to use Italian flavored bread crumbs, but you can you any flavor of bread crumbs you like. Panko bread crumbs are my families favorite.
How do you cook Breaded Pork Chops?
You can make breaded pork chops in the air fryer, or even in the oven. But I personally like to pan fry them in about 1/2 an inch of oil.
The key to cooking Pork Chops is getting them perfectly done on the inside while keeping the outside golden brown.
