Juicy, tender inside; crispy outside.

Place the cornstarch on a plate. In a shallow bowl, add the milk, dijon mustard and garlic, and whisk until well combined. Place the panko on another plate.

Repeat the same steps until all the chops are well prepared. Allow the chops to rest for about 15 minutes.

Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot.

Put the pork chops in the hot skillet and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 4 minutes.

Gently turn the chops over and keep cooking the other side until golden brown, crispy, and the center of the pork chop reaches 140 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, another 4 to 5 minutes.

Place the cooked chops to a paper towel-lined plate and drain off the excess oil for about 40 seconds to 1 minutes on both sides.

Put the pork chops in the hot skillet and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 4 minutes.
