Tender breaded pork cutlets topped with a rich tonkatsu sauce, served over rice with fresh cabbage and green onions.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless pork loin chops
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • 2 cups cooked jasmine rice
  • 1 cup shredded cabbage
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • For the Tonkatsu Sauce:
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp honey or sugar

Instructions

  1. Season pork chops with salt and pepper. Prepare three shallow bowls with flour, beaten eggs, and panko breadcrumbs.
  2. Dredge each chop in flour, dip in egg, then coat thoroughly with panko breadcrumbs.
  3. Heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Fry breaded pork until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
  4. Meanwhile, mix ketchup, Worcestershire, soy sauce, mustard, and honey to make the tonkatsu sauce.
  5. Assemble bowls with rice at the base, topped with sliced katsu, shredded cabbage, and green onions. Drizzle with tonkatsu sauce and serve immediately.
