FAQs:
- How long does it take to cook pork chops on a frying pan?
- About 7 minutes on each side, and don’t forget to brown the fat on the edges too!
- How can you tell if the pork chops are done?
- If they are firm to the touch, they are done. If you wait longer, you will see juice oozing out of the top of a chop, meaning it is definitely done. You can also check the internal temperature of the pork with a digital thermometer; when the pork registers 71°C in the middle, it's done.
