aunt squishy's teryaki panko pork chops

a recipe by
Lynsee Gilbert

Tangy teriyaki marinated pork chops fried with panko breading go great with pretty much any side dishes and provide an easy wow factor. HINT: Save money and buy a pork loin, then cut it into chops. Bone-out chops are pound-for-pound significantly more expensive than a whole loin.

How To Make aunt squishy's teryaki panko pork chops

  • 1
    DO AHEAD: Cut the pork loin into 8-12 thick pork chops
  • 2
    Combine soy, hoisin, brown sugar, cilantro, ginger, and garlic in a large bowl and whisk until sugar is dissolved.
  • 3
    Place pork chops and marinade mixture in a large flat container so that all chops are resting in the marinade or divide chops and marinade evenly among large ziplock bags.
  • 4
    Marinade pork chops in the fridge overnight, turning once to ensure both sides are evenly marinated.
  • 5
    Remove pork chops from marinade and gently pat dry with a paper towel
  • 6
    Lightly beat eggs in a shallow bowl (if cooking chops separately, use 1 egg per 4 chops)
  • 7
    In a shallow dish or rimmed plate combine panko, parmesan, and sage.
  • 8
    Salt and pepper both sides of each pork chop to taste
  • 9
    Dip each pork chop in the egg, then press them into the panko mixture to coat.
  • 10
    Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet. To test oil's readiness, wet fingertips with a small amount of water and flick them over the oil. If it sizzles, it's ready.
  • 11
    Fry pork chops in the oil over medium heat until golden brown and internal temperature reading reaches 145 F (approx. 10 minutes)
