Fried Pork Chops -- Done Right!!! - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 center-cut pork chops (bone-in)
2/3 cup vegetable oil (canola)
1/2 cup self-rising flour
salt
black pepper
paprika

Preparation

Generously coat salt, pepper and paprika on both sides of chops.
Place flour into a plastic bag.
Shake chops in bag to coat flour and then set aside in a plate for 5 to 10 minutes. Then shake and flour in bag a second time.
Pour oil into a 10 inch frying skillet. Turn burner on to medium high. (On my stove top there are numbers 1-10) I use 6 as medium high to begin.
Once a piece of flour dropped into oil and it sizzles, place chops in and turn down to 5 which would be considered medium.
Let chops fry just a few seconds then turn over -- then again for a few seconds. This will be repeated approximately 3 times for turning to each side.
Once you see oil begins to stop sizzling, they are done and should be a golden brown. Do not get too dark brown or they will be tough.
