Equipment

  • One large frying pan.
  • A pair of metal tongs.
  • Two medium mixing bowls.
  • A wire cooling rack.
  • A sharp kitchen knife.

Ingredients
  

  • 4 thick-cut bone-in pork chops.
  • 1 cup of cornstarch.
  • 1 cup of vegetable oil.
  • 2 teaspoons of salt.
  • 1 teaspoon of black pepper.
  • 1 teaspoon of garlic powder.

Instructions
 

  • Dry the pork chops with paper towels. Excess moisture ruins the crunch.
  • Rub salt, pepper, and garlic powder on both sides. Let them sit for ten minutes.
  • Dredge each chop into the cornstarch. Press it down to make it stick.
  • Pour oil into your large frying pan. Make sure the oil is very hot.
  • Place chops carefully into the hot oil. Fry for five minutes on each side.
  • Place fried chops on a wire rack. Let them rest before slicing.

Notes

  • Use bone-in chops for better flavor.
  • Always use cornstarch, not regular flour.
  • Do not crowd the frying pan.
  • Keep the oil temperature steady and hot.
  • Let the meat rest after cooking.
