My family loves these spicy, fried pork chops. Quick and easy to make! I've used bone-in pork steaks instead, and just increased cooking time per side a couple of minutes

I don't understand the negative reviews either. I too have made this dish over and over again and everyone who eats it absolutely loves it! The flavor has just the right amount of "kick". Many of my friends who have tried it have asked for the recipe. Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe! Read More

I have to agree with previous comments. The seasoning is not very flavorful and doesn't really compliment the pork. I would leave out the sage and creole seasoning and add in some red pepper flakes onion powder and thyme. Read More

These are a very good (and fast) weeknight meal! I don't like pork chops fried with flour so I eliminated the flour and substituted cumin for the sage which i think goes better with the other seasonings. Also I never fry boneless chops (too dry) so used bone-in instead. Browned them up in a hot cast-iron skillet and they were delicious! Read More

These cajun pork chops were out of this world my family was looking for more after dinner. I added a little more cayenne pepper because we like spicy food. It was delish.... Read More

This is probably my favorite way that I've ever had prok chops. I added double of everything except flour and paprika because we like things extra spicy. I double dipped them in the flour mixture (flour milk flour) and allowed them to rest for about 30 minutes before cooking them. I cooked them in an iron skillet with only 1 TB of olive oil but I did spray the pan liberally with Pam first so it would not soak up all of the oil. They cooked for about 6 minutes on each side for a 1/2 inch thick chop. Wonderful! Read More

These were very good the only reason I gave it 4 stars is because we were expecting it to be a little spicier. Had a nice mild flavor recipe followed to the letter. Easy enough to make I also made 5 good sized chops and still had enough season to cover at least 2 more. I will make again. Thanks. Read More

These were excellent. The only thing I omitted was the sage and creole seasoning. I just didn't have any on hand. I did use 1 tbsp. bread crumbs and 1 tsp. red pepper flakes. These were very delicious. Thanks for a great recipe. Read More
