- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 1 tablespoon milk

- 1 tablespoon butter

Instructions
- Trim any excess fat from the pork and pound the chops to a 1/4-inch thickness. Set aside.
- Combine the flour with the onion powder, about 1/2 teaspoon of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Whisk the egg and milk together in a shallow dish.
- Dip the pork chops, one by one in the egg mixture, then dredge in the flour. Film the bottom of a large skillet with vegetable oil and heat over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops in a single layer and cook until golden brown, 1-1/2 minutes per side. Transfer to a serving plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
- Wipe any crumbs from the skillet and add the butter. Add the onion and cook until soft and translucent, 3 minutes. Add the capers and stir in the chicken broth and Dijon-style mustard. Cook until bubbling and beginning to thicken, 2 minutes.
- Stir in the cream and season to taste with salt and pepper. Cook until smooth and slightly thickened, 1 minute more. Pour over the chops and serve immediately.
Notes
Recipe Notes:
It’s important not to overcook the pork for this recipe. If your chops pounded nice and thin, it shouldn’t take more than 3 minutes total for the pork to cook through, provided the pan is hot enough. Like this recipe? Rate and comment below!

Thanks for this great classic recipe. I was so bored of pork chops but this recipe inspired me even down to the duck-fat roasted potatoes and sauteed spinach.
