Peking Pork Chops

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the marinade ingredients.  Add the pounded pork pieces and toss to completely coat.  Cover and marinade for 30 minutes.

Step 2

In the mean time, prepare the sauce by whisking together all of the sauce ingredients in a bowl.  Set aside.

Step 3

Using a large skillet, add a little bit of the vegetable oil and fry the pork pieces in small batches in a single layer.  Over medium heat, fry each piece for 3 minutes per side.  Transfer cooked pork to a paper towel lined plate until all of the pork has been fried.  (You can add a little bit of oil after each batch - you may or may not use up the entire 1/4 cup.)

Step 4

Once all the pork has been fried and set aside, pour the sauce into the skillet and over medium heat, bring the sauce to a slight boil.

Step 5

Add the pork pieces back to the skillet.  Toss well to coat with the sauce.  Continue to cook until the sauce has thickened.  Serve immediately.
