Pork chops are an accessible affordable, common cut of meat on Amish farms. And there are so many ways to prepare them. You can barbecue them, bake them, fry them, marinate them, season them, or just fry them plain. You can eat them on a sandwich, you can dip them you can, eat them off the bone and on and on.
👨🍳 Pork Chop Possibilities
It is this versatility and variety that makes pork chops such a prize cut of meat in Amish kitchens. And for the rest of us, it's a very affordable pack of meat. I can buy a five pack of pork chops at the local supermarket for five bucks. So you can really stretch it.
This is an easy recipe, but it's delicious. Even if the "breading "falls off, it's OK. The flavor will still be on the pork chop, and the breading will just be left by itself. It's really good.
📋 Step-By-Step Breaded Honey Dijon Pork Chops
This is a super easy recipe to make (that is my favorite kind), and it has a really pleasant, unique flavor, whether you like Dijon mustard or not.
These are really all you need to do these pork chops, but you can also add in your own seasonings if you want.
In a bowl, mix the breading ingredients—cornmeal, Dijon mustard, honey, and seasonings—until you get a moist—not dry or coarse—breading that you can easily clump. Put some olive oil on a plate and dip each side of the pork chop in olive oil. Then, grab a handful of breading and pack it onto each side of the pork chop and put it into a skillet or electric fryer.
This pork chop is packed with breading and frying. The celery salt and oregano are good combinations, but you can feel free to experiment with the seasonings.
Each pork chop got about 10 minutes cooking time on each side in my electric skillet on high. The breading will brown or even blacken during that time. Just make sure you turn the chops over while cooking and do about 10 minutes on each side.
Pair this will mashed potatoes or rice and I think you have a super supper. Very easy. Full of flavor. The breading, at least some of it, fell of while I was eating it, but it didn't matter. I just made sure I forked some onto each pork chop bite and it was so, so good!
