Filipino style pork chops recipe
I used pork chops in this recipe, you may use any element of the pork. The reason I used this part is because of its fat content. The fats add more flavor to the dish.
- 7 pork chops
- ½ cup cooking oil
- 1 large onion sliced
- 1½ cups water
- 1 tbsp granulated white sugar
- Salt and pepper to taste
Marinade
- 5 tbsp soy sauce
- 3 kalamansi (or 2 limes or 1 lemon)
- 3 cloves garlic
- pepper to taste
- 1 thumb ginger
Marinate the pork or beef steak in kalamansi (lemon) juice, garlic, ginger, soy sauce and pepper for 30 minutes.
Heat a pan then pour-in cooking oil.
Pan-fry the marinated pork chops in medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes per side.
Remove excess oil. Pour-in the remaining marinade and water and let boil. Simmer for 45 minutes or until the pork is tender. Note: Add water as needed.
Add-in the sugar, salt, and pepper then stir.
Put-in the onions and cook for 3 minutes more.
Turn-off heat and transfer to a serving plate.
