Pork Chops Preparation
- 1
Marinate the Pork Chops
In a bowl, add the pork loin chops and cover them with buttermilk. Let them marinate for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator, or overnight for best results.

Prepare the Breading
In a shallow dish, mix the flour, cornmeal, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Set aside.

Bread the Pork Chops
Remove the pork chops from the buttermilk, allowing the excess to drip off. Dredge each chop in the flour mixture, ensuring an even coating. Set aside on a plate.

Fry the Pork Chops
In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded pork chops. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
