Crispy Pork Chops

I have to admit I am not big on pork chops. The only pork I like is sweet and sour, which if you ask me, I can get away with sweet and sour chicken. These Crispy Pork Chops, however, is in a class of its own. They are crispy on the outside yet juicy on the inside. Best of all, it is really easy to make. (Really, I promise!)
