Crispy, savory, and packed with bold flavor, these Mustard Fried Pork Chops Breaded are a mouthwatering twist on a classic comfort food. Each thick, juicy bone-in pork chop is coated in a tangy mustard marinade infused with garlic, onion powder, paprika, and a touch of black pepper, giving the dish a zesty kick. The pork chops are then breaded in a perfectly balanced trio of all-purpose flour, whisked eggs, and crunchy panko breadcrumbs, creating an irresistibly golden, crunchy crust when fried to perfection. Quick and easy to prepare in under 40 minutes, this recipe is perfect for weeknight dinners or special occasions. Serve them hot with your favorite sides like creamy mashed potatoes, buttered green beans, or a fresh salad for a hearty, satisfying meal.
Place the pork chops on a cutting board and use a paper towel to pat them dry. This will help the breading stick better later.
In a small bowl, mix the yellow mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a mustard marinade.
Rub the mustard marinade evenly over both sides of each pork chop. Set aside while preparing the breading station.
Prepare a breading station with three shallow dishes: one with the all-purpose flour, one with the eggs (whisked), and one with the panko breadcrumbs.
Dredge each mustard-coated pork chop first in the flour, ensuring it is evenly coated. Shake off excess flour.
Next, dip the pork chop into the egg mixture, making sure it is fully covered, and allow any excess egg to drip off.
Finally, coat the pork chop in the panko breadcrumbs, pressing the crumbs gently onto the meat to adhere well. Set aside on a plate and repeat with the remaining pork chops.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat until it shimmers (about 350°F if using a thermometer).
Carefully place the pork chops into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
Transfer the cooked pork chops to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Serve hot with your choice of sides and enjoy!
