Chicken Fried Chops manage the seemingly impossible: the roasted flavors and crisp jacket of a pan-fried pork chop with juicy, cut-it-with-a-fork tenderness. Seasoned with earthy and slightly sour spices, browned to perfection, and slow-cooked in meaty cream of chicken soup, these chops invite you to savor every last bite. There’s nothing quite so satisfying as coming home after a long day to find Chicken Fried Chops awaiting you, already hot and ready to serve. Pair with mashed potatoes and gravy and you have a magnificent meal!
