  • Author: Olivia
  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 2 boneless pork chops (or chicken breasts)
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 2 large eggs
– 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
– Vegetable oil, for frying
– 2 cups cooked rice (white or brown)
– 1 cup shredded cabbage (optional, for garnish)
– ¼ cup Tonkatsu sauce
– Green onions, for garnish (optional)
– Sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Creating Japanese Katsu Bowls with Tonkatsu Sauce can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Meat: Season the pork chops with salt and pepper on both sides.
2. Set Up Breading Station: In three separate bowls, place flour, beaten eggs, and panko breadcrumbs.
3. Bread the Cutlets: Dredge each pork chop in flour, shaking off excess. Dip in eggs, then coat thoroughly with panko breadcrumbs.
4. Heat Oil: In a large skillet, heat about 1/2 inch of vegetable oil over medium heat.
5. Fry the Cutlets: Once the oil is hot, carefully add the breaded cutlets. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.
6. Drain Excess Oil: Remove the cutlets from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil.
7. Slice the Cutlets: Once slightly cooled, slice the cutlets into strips.
8. Prepare Rice: While the cutlets are frying, cook rice according to package instructions.
9. Assemble the Bowl: In a serving bowl, place a generous portion of cooked rice, top with sliced katsu, and drizzle with Tonkatsu sauce.
10. Garnish: Add shredded cabbage, green onions, and sesame seeds on top for added flavor and presentation.
