Kushner Country Fried Chops

Here is an interesting take on a classic. Pork chops that have been “cubed” and southern fried in a lemon garlic seasoning. What a surprise addition to the old Mashed Potatoes and Green Beans.


We are dedicating this dish to LGBT Hero: Tony Kushner. Who is an interesting twist to a southern gentleman himself. Be sure to read a short article about him following the recipe.

Ingredients

  • 3 - 4 boneless pork chops that have been “cubed”
  • 1 tbs lemon – garlic seasoning
  • salt and pepper, divided
  • ½ cup flour
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 1 “sleeve” of butter-type crackers (Ritz)
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 1 cup milk, heated
     

Directions:
Ask your butcher to run some pork chops through the “cubing” machine. Or just use a mallet to flatten the boneless chops between two pieces of plastic. 
 


Season meat with ½ teaspoon of the lemon -garlic seasoning, place in a zipper bag with 2 tbs buttermilk ranch dressing. Set in refrigerator for at least an hour.



Crush the crackers in your hand.




Trim any excess fat from the chops.

Remove the chops from marinade and pat it dry. Dust it well with a mix of flour and another 1 tbs lemon-garlic seasonings, pat that into the meat.

Set up your breading stations:
Beaten egg
Crushed crackers
Cooking rack.



Dip in beaten egg, then dredge in the crushed crackers. Place each piece onto the cooking rack.



IMPORTANT to let this sit for 7 to 8 minutes. It also helps if the meat is near room temperature. This is the key to having the breading stick to the meat.





Heat shortening in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat.

Fry steaks 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Drain back on the cooking rack (not on paper towels). If you have trouble balancing your times, slide this into a 200 degree oven to stay warm.

Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the fat. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of the dredging flour into oil. Cook over medium heat for 1 minute, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of skillet.
Gradually whisk in a warmed cup of milk. Cook, stirring frequently, 3 to 4 minutes, or until thickened and bubbly.
 


Serve with green beans and mashed potatoes.
