PORK STEAK RECIPE

PORK STEAK is an alteration of Bistek Tagalog. All the ingredients are the same, as well as the procedure; the only difference is the use of pork instead of beef. Here, I used pork chop, the best part to be used in this one. Though it’s hard to find this part in some countries, unlike here in the Philippines it’s in every market (with fats and skin attached), you can use any part as long as they are sliced properly.

This is one of the easiest dishes for me because it doesn’t require too much ingredients. With just soy sauce, lemon (kalamansi) and white onion, you’ll have an exquisite pork chop dish. With this one, I added green beans at the end to have healthier dish for my kids. So, let’s get started.

INGREDIENTS:

- 5 to 6 pieces pork chops
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 2 pieces lime or 1 piece lemon
- 1/2 cup cooking oil
- 2 medium white onions, sliced
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1 tablespoon granulated white sugar
- Pepper to taste
- All in one seasoning granules

COOKING PROCEDURE:

1. Combine pork chops, soy sauce, lime juice and seasoning granules in a large bowl or any container. Marinade for at least 1 hour.
2. Heat a pan then pour-in cooking oil.
3. Pan-fry the marinated pork chops in medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes per side.
4. 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.)
5. Add-in the sugar and pepper then stir.
6.Put-in the onions and cook for 3 minutes more.

Turn-off heat and transfer to a serving plate. This is best served with steamed rice.
Serve and enjoy!
