Ingredients
- 1/4 cup soy sauce (preferably low sodium)
- 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon five spice powder
- 1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine
- 2 center cut pork chops (about 1-inch thick, 10-12 ounces/280-340g)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients from the soy sauce to the wine in a shallow dish. Marinate the pork chops in this mixture for 20 minutes to an hour.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet. Sear the pork chops on both sides until cooked through (you can discard any leftover marinade). It should take 5 minutes per side for 1-inch thick pork chops, as long as they were at room temperature when you started cooking them.
- Allow to cool for 5 minutes. Enjoy!
