Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Pork
Cut the pork loin into thin slices, about 1/2 inch thick. This will help them cook evenly and get that crispy texture.
- 2
Season the Pork
In a large bowl, mix together salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper. Rub the seasoning mixture onto both sides of the pork slices. Allow it to marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Bread the Pork
Dip each seasoned pork slice first into the flour, then into the egg mixture, and finally coat with cornstarch. Ensure each piece is well-coated for maximum crispiness.
Frying
- 5
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. The oil should be hot enough that a breadcrumb dropped into it sizzles immediately.
- 6
Fry the Pork
Carefully place the breaded pork slices into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the fried pork to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serving
- 7
Serve the Fried Pork
Once fried, let the pork rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your fried pork with your favorite dipping sauces or sides.
