Hey, everyone, I'm Judith with recipe.com. Now, today, I'm gonna
be showing you how to make oven fried pork chops,
a really quick and easy pork dish that will impress
your friends. So, what you're gonna need is full pork
loin chops, 120 ounce package of frozen roasted potato pieces.
We have 2 tablespoons of fat-free milk, 1 egg right
here, and we have 1 cup of corn bread stuffing
mix. This is really quick and simple to do. So
first of all, get a shallow baking dish like so,
and we're just gonna add in our egg and our
milk and will whisk those together, vegetable. So, this is
gonna help with kind of like the butter for our
pork chops. So, once that's all whisked in, let's get
our second baking dish, and we're gonna add in our
cornbread stuffing mixture. So, this is gonna make pork chops
nice and crispy when they are oven fried like so.
Let's get our pork chops right here, and now we've
trimmed the fat a little bit from our pork chops.
So, they are nice and lean meaty. So, first of
all, we're gonna get out meat, and we're gonna put
it in our egg mixture, both sides, and then we're
gonna place it in our stuffing mixture and get that
covered nicely with that cornbread mixture. So, once that's covered,
let's get our potatoes into the bottom of our baking
dish and when we're gonna lay our pork chops on
top of that. So, they wanna get nice and golden
brown in the oven, great. Okay, so let's get our
pork chop and we're gonna put that on top like,
so let's put it this way. There we go. Now,
we've kept the bone on. A lot of people say,
it makes the meat a little bit more juicier because
it retains up moisture when the bone is on, but
you can obviously get boneless pork chops if you wanted
too as well. Put that there, and we'll do it
with all of our pork chops, same thing. So, our
pork chops and our potatoes are all ready to put
in the oven. We preheated our oven to 425 degrees
Fahrenheit, and we're gonna leave it uncovered and it's gonna
be in there for about 20 minutes. We're gonna turn
it once. We're gonna turn the potatoes once too. So,
they all get nice golden brown, and that's it, and
then they're coming out in 20 minutes. So, we removed
our pork chops from the oven that been in there
20 minutes. Now, make sure you don't overcook your pork
chops. The one thing if you do is that will
become very tough and chewy and you do now want
that. So make sure you check your pork chops. Make
sure they are ready. These are lovely nice and crisp
tender, looking beautiful. Serve them up with some of these
lovely golden brown potatoes on the side right there, and
that's it. So, that's how you make oven fried pork
chops. Well, thanks for watching everyone. For more great recipes
