PANFRYING PORK CHOPS  
1
2
. Select pork chop from those shown in the photos.  
. If the pork is very lean and has little fat, coat a heavy skillet or  
frying pan with a small amount of vegetable oil, or spray it with cooking  
spray. Or use a nonstick skillet.

. Heat the skillet over medium heat 1 to 2 minutes.  
. Place the pork chop in the hot skillet. You do not need to add oil or  
water or cover the skillet; covering will cause the pork chop to be  
steamed rather than  
panfried.  
5
. Cook for the time listed in the chart, turning pork chop occasionally.  
If the pork chop has extra fat on it, fat may accumulate in the skillet;  
remove this fat with a spoon as it accumulates. Cook until brown on both  
sides and the doneness listed in chart.* To check doneness, cut a small  
slit in the center of boneless cuts or in the center near the bone of  
bone-in cuts. Medium pork is slightly pink in center. Well-done pork is no  
longer pink in center. Or insert a meat thermometer in the center of the  
pork chop to check for desired doneness. Sprinkle salt and pepper over  
both sides of pork chop after cooking if desired. Serve immediately.
