Ingredients

For the Pork Chops:

  • 4 boneless pork chops, 1-inch thick
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 2 cups panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Vegetable oil for frying

For the Sriracha Brussels Sprouts:

  • 500g Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  • Prepare the Pork Chops:
    1. In three separate shallow dishes, place flour, beaten eggs, and a mixture of panko breadcrumbs with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
    2. Season each pork chop with salt and pepper. Dredge each chop in flour, shaking off excess, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat evenly with the panko mixture.
    3. In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Fry the pork chops until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  • Cook the Sriracha Brussels Sprouts:
    1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
    2. In a large bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, Sriracha sauce, honey, soy sauce, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
    3. Spread the Brussels sprouts on a baking sheet in a single layer.
    4. Roast in the preheated oven until tender and slightly charred, about 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through.
  • Serve:
    1. Plate the crispy pork chops with a side of spicy Sriracha Brussels sprouts.
    2. Optional: Garnish with fresh herbs or a drizzle of extra Sriracha if desired.
