How to Make Fried Pork Chops And Gravy
- Marinate: In a blender, combine soy sauce, olive oil, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and onion powder. Blend until smooth.
- Marinate Pork Chops: Place pork chops in a resealable bag. Add marinade, squeeze out air, seal, and refrigerate for 4-8 hours.
- Preheat & Prep: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Remove chops from bag, discarding marinade. Pat dry with paper towels.
- Prepare Coating: Beat eggs in a pie plate. In another pie plate, combine pancake mix, paprika, and salt.
- Bread Chops: Dip each chop in pancake mix, shaking off excess. Dip in egg, coating both sides. Dip in pancake mix again, coating well.
- Rest Chops: Place breaded chops on a wire rack for 5 minutes to set.
- Melt Butter: Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with non-stick spray. Add butter and place in the preheated oven to melt.
- Bake Chops: Arrange chops in a single layer in the melted butter in the baking dish.
- First Bake: Bake for 10 minutes.
- Flip and Bake: Carefully turn chops over and bake for another 10 minutes.
- Drain: Remove chops to a wire rack over paper towels to drain.
- Make Gravy: In a saucepan over medium-high heat, whisk together 2 tablespoons pan drippings and flour until smooth.
- Simmer Gravy: Gradually whisk in chicken broth, beef granules, marjoram, and sage. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, whisking constantly, until thickened (about 5 minutes).
- Serve: Serve chops with mashed potatoes (optional) and gravy. Enjoy!
