Instructions
1Prepare the pork by seasoning both sides with salt and pepper.
2Set up a dredging station with three shallow dishes: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs.
3Coat each pork chop in flour, shaking off any excess, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally press into the panko breadcrumbs until thoroughly coated.
4Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
5Fry each pork chop for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
6For the cabbage slaw, combine cabbage and carrot in a bowl.
7In a separate small bowl, mix rice vinegar, sugar, salt, and sesame oil until the sugar dissolves.
8Pour the dressing over the cabbage and carrot, and toss to combine well.
