Prepare the Pork
Trim any excess fat from the pork loin and cut it into 1-inch thick slices. Season each slice generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Breading Setup
Set up your breading station: Place the all-purpose flour in one shallow dish, beat the egg in another dish, and put the panko breadcrumbs in a third shallow dish.
Cooking

Bread the Pork
Dredge each pork slice in the flour, shaking off any excess. Dip it into the beaten egg, then coat it with panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently so the breadcrumbs adhere.

Fry the Pork
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded pork slices in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.
