Crunchy Onion Pork Chops by Mags


Original Recipe found HERE.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 cups (2 oz.) FRENCH'S® Original or Cheddar French Fried Onions
  • 4 (1/2 inch thick) bone-in or boneless pork chops
  • 1 egg, beaten


PROCEDURE:

PLACE French Fried Onions into plastic bag. Lightly crush with hands or with rolling pin. Transfer to shallow dish.

DIP pork chops into beaten egg; then toss in crushed onions. Place pork chops into disposable foil pan.


TO EAT TODAY:

For GRILL COOKING, prepare grill for indirect cooking over medium-high heat (400°F). Cook pork chops in covered grill 20 to 25 min. or until no longer pink in center.

For OVEN COOKING, place on cookie sheet and cook at 400°F for 20-30 minutes (until done)


TO FREEZE & EAT LATER:
Slide coated pork chops into freezer bag and press out all air. Seal and freeze.
On serving day, thaw completely and follow cooking instructions above.


VARIATIONS:
This can also be done with chicken - and with either, you can add 2TBSP of flour to the crushed onions as part of your coating. Use the Cheddar French Fried Onions for a cheesy alternative.

Enjoy!

  1. Our family has now had this as a chicken dish and this pork - we like the pork much better - MUCH more flavorful! :) This was also great as leftovers - I'm thinking we need more uses for the French-fried onions...!!! :)

  3. This was well loved by my family. They always like to dip their chicken in BBQ sauce, so everything always tastes good with that. But I ate my without and liked the flavor. Great meal. Thanks a bunch.

  4. Hey All -
    This is the meal that I made for November (I've made it before) with no changes except to add some flour to the onion ring coating (which was listed as an option in the procedure anyway). When you go to rate it, just click on "Mags" on the right-hand side and it will be the 3rd recipe down. Our family REALLY loves this - We're calling it "Onion Ring Pork Chops" and our family LOVES onion rings!!! :)

  6. Still a big hit with my family (we had it again tonight with mac-n-cheese & salad). This has become one of my favorites for easy-cooking!

  7. I still had all 12 of these, so I fed my parents, my sister's family, and my family this weekend. This was a big hit with everyone. The pork chops were very juicy and flavorful. Thanks for a great meal!
