Instructions
- Fill a pot, with tall sides, with about 1 ½” oil and preheat to 325˚F.
- Season each pork chop generously with salt and pepper, on both sides.
- Dredge each pork chop in flour, until fully coated, and shake to remove any excess coating.
- Next, dip each pork chop in the beaten egg until fully coated, then dredge into panko breadcrumb and Italian breadcrumb mixture until completely coated, shaking to remove any excess coating.
- Transfer coated pork chops onto a baking sheet lined with a cooling rack and refrigerate for 30 minutes. (this step is optional, but will help the coating stay on the pork chops).
- Remove pork chops from the refrigerator and carefully drop into the hot oil and fry for 3 ½ to 4 minutes, until golden brown and pork has just cooked through.
- Remove both chops from oil and transfer to a baking sheet with a cooling rack. Season with salt.
- Spread mayo over slices of bread. Top two of the slices each with ½ cup shredded cabbage.
- Place a fried pork over each pile of cabbage and drizzle with tonkatsu sauce. Top with remaining slices of bread.
- Gently press down on the sandwiches while slicing each in half and serve.
Notes
- Air Fryer Pork Katsu Instructions
- We love using our air fryer to make our pork katsu because you still get the same extra crispy and juicy results without the excess oil.
- To make the pork katsu in the air fryer, follow the same breaded and refrigerating instructions, but instead set your air fryer for 360˚F. Coat the air fryer basket with cooking spray and also generously coat each side of the katsu with cooking spray. Air fry for about 15-18 minutes, flipping halfway through cooking.
