Ingredients
  

  • 6 Thick Cut Pork Chops ¾-1 inch thick, boneless

  • 2 tsp Salt divided
  • 2 tsp White Pepper divided
  • 3 Large Eggs
  • 3 cups Panko Bread Crumbs
  • ½ cup Cornstarch

Instructions
 

  • Place each pork chop between two sheets of parchment and flatten with a meat mallet or rolling pin to ½ inch or less thickness.
  • Set up your dredging station: Tray 1 - flour, 1 tsp ground ginger, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp white pepper. Tray 2 - beaten eggs, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp white pepper. Tray 3 - panko crumbs, cornstarch, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp ground ginger. Make sure each is evenly combined.
  • Run each flattened pork chop through tray 1, 2 and 3 and set aside.
  • Add enough oil to bottom of the frying to be ½ inch deep. Bring to 350degF. Fry each pork chop for 3-5 minutes on each side (should be perfectly golden brown). Remove to a wire rack over paper towels.
  • Right before serving cut each katsu into thin strips for serving. Drizzle with sweet chili sauce if desired.
