Preparation
- In a bowl, combine the boneless pork chops with vegetable oil, Shaoxing wine, 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, and salt. Mix well and let them marinate for 15 minutes to soak in all that flavor.
- Heat sufficient vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat. While the oil heats, have a paper towel-lined plate ready for draining the fried pork.
- Add the sliced garlic and jalapenos to the hot oil and fry them until the garlic turns pale golden and the jalapenos become crispy, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels.
- Toss the marinated pork chops with the remaining 1/4 cup of cornstarch. Ensure each piece is well-coated for that glorious crispy texture.
- In batches, add the coated pork pieces to the hot oil. Fry them for 2-3 minutes per side until they turn a beautiful crispy, golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
- Finally, toss the cooked pork with the fried garlic and jalapenos. Sprinkle with additional salt and pepper to taste, and serve immediately.
