There's no need to order takeout! These Salt and Pepper Pork Chops <\/strong>taste just like your favorite Chinese restaurant. Using one cooking technique, they're golden and crispy on the outside and super moist and flavorful inside. They're perfect with steamed rice!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guys, you seriously need to give me a pat on the back! If you've been following Kawaling Pinoy for a while, you know I love copycatting Chinese restaurant favorites. And if I may say so myself, I think I've done a pretty good job recreating the unique flavors of dishes such as beef broccoli<\/a>, shrimp Kung Pao<\/a>, and chow mein<\/a> at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But these salt and pepper pork chops, my friends, I hit the bull right in the eye! I was ready to enjoy for lunch the batch I made today when G walked in from his Jujitsu class and said, \"You ordered delivery?\" They, indeed, look (and taste) just like the restaurants!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I've tried numerous times to crack the code on these pork chops but always unsuccessfully. My many attempts were either too dry, not crispy enough, lacking flavor, or all of the above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, last weekend, I made Singapore-style coffee ribs<\/a>, took one bite test, a.k.a. one big bone,<\/span> and had an AHA moment. I realized the freshly fried pork ribs had the same texture and taste I'd wanted to replicate for some time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I rushed to the store to pick up a couple of pounds of pork chops, and in an hour, I was moonwalking in the kitchen with uncontained glee. Woot, hoot! Tender meat, crispy coating, and full flavor\u2014they turned out just like what you'll find at your favorite Chinese restaurant!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
