For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika or dried herbs to the flour mixture. Panko bread crumbs provide a superior crunch compared to regular bread crumbs. Ensure the oil is hot before adding the pork chops to achieve optimal browning. Don't overcrowd the pan, as this will lower the oil temperature and result in soggy chops. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the pork chops are cooked to a safe internal temperature.
