Simple Oriental Pork Chop

If you prefer something light & easy for weekday dinner, this is a good recipes. It is so easy to prepare & my kid love this pork chop so much. It tastes exceptionally good with a bowl of white rice.

You just need to marinate the pork chop one day ahead in the refrigerator. Then, pan fry it until it is thoroughly cooked. Normally, I will do the marinate & get my hubby to pan fry it.

Marinates for 2 servings:
3 pcs of pork chop ( get the butcher to recommend the best cut for pork chop)
2 tsp of light soy sauces
1tsp of sugar
1 tsp of Shao Xin Wine (Chinese cooking wine)
Some pepper
1 tsp of ginger juice (optional)

Method:
1) Marinate overnight in refrigerator. 
2) Heat 1 tbsp of oil in the non stick pan, then lay the pork chop & pan fry it accordingly.
3) It will depend how thick is the pork chop, the thicker the cut, the longer it takes to pan fry it. You will be able to tell when it is cooked by looking at it.
4) Let the pork chop rest for about 20mins before serving because it will keep the pork chop moist.
5) Enjoy~~

My kid love lean meat, therefore I use the lean meat to make those pork chops. Personally, I prefer to use the regular "pork chop" cut that have some fat on it. It tastes better that way. Keep the fat when pan fry it. Discard the fat when serving it.
