Milk Chops

I call this recipe milk chops because I used milk instead of eggs to coat the pork chops.

I’ve used bone in pork chops, but you can use boneless pork chops too.

1/4 tsp. each: salt, pepper, granulated garlic

In a shallow dish combine: milk, half of salt, pepper. Mix with a clean fork.

Pour breadcrumbs in a separate dish add garlic, rest of salt, pepper.

Dredge both sides of a pork chop in milk. 

Dredge both sides of chop in bread crumbs. 

Repeat process with remaining pork chops. 

Heat skillet to medium high heat.

Lower heat to medium, add oil.

Add chops to pan and cook on 1 side for 8 - 10 min. 

Flip over and cook chops on other side for 8 - 10 min more or until done.

Remove pork chops from skillet and place on serving plate to let rest.

Serves 4.
