When you don’t feel like going to a lot of effort to prepare dinner that night, you need a simple dinner plan that you can count on to deliver a tasty meal. There is nothing easier to prepare than the humble pork chop.

Like chicken, chops are great for easy, inexpensive meals that still have that good old-fashioned homemade flavor. While plain chops are good, breaded chops are even better. But, at first, it may seem like a lot of work for a simple meal.

Fortunately, there is an easy way to make breaded pork chops. As you’ll see in our easy breaded pork chops recipe, all you need is a package of chops, some flour, eggs, crushed crackers, and some margarine.

Even someone who doesn’t cook much can whip these chops up in no time.

=> Easy Breaded Pork Chops

6 pork chops, 1/2 cup flour, 2 beaten eggs, 15 crushed Ritz crackers, 2 tablespoons margarine.

Add the flour to a medium bowl. In another bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, add the crushed cookies.

In a large skillet, melt the margarine over medium heat.

Coat each cutlet on both sides with the flour, then the eggs, then dip into the cookie crumb mixture. Cook chops on both sides until cooked through and no longer pink.
