Ingredients:
4 pork chops (Manea's Meats)
1/2 CUP Flour
1 tsp Salt
1 tsp Black pepper
3/4 tbsp Ground ginger
1/2 Tbsp Ground nutmeg
1/2 Tbsp Paprika
1/4 tsp Cayenne pepper
2 Eggs (Manea's Meats)
Sunflower oil (or oil of choice)
4 Tbsp water
2 Tbsp Olive oil
3 – 4 Cloves minced garlic
1 CUP Honey (Manea's Meats)
¼ CUP Soy sauce
1 tsp Ground black pepper

Directions:
Sift together the flour, salt, black pepper, ground ginger, nutmeg, paprika and cayenne pepper.


Make an egg wash by whisking together the eggs and water.

Season the pork chops with salt and pepper, then dip the meat in the flour and spice mixture. Dip the chop into the eggwash and then a final time into the flour and spice mix, pressing the mix into the meat to get good contact.

Heat a skillet on the stove with about a half inch of sunflower oil covering the bottom. You will want to carefully regulate the temperature here so that the chops does not brown too quickly.  Fry them gently for about 4 or 5 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.

Drain on a wire rack for a couple of minutes before dipping the cooked pork chops into the

Honey Garlic Sauce:
In a medium saucepan add the 2 tbsp olive oil and minced garlic. Cook over medium heat to soften the garlic but do not let it brown.
Add the honey, soy sauce and black pepper.


Simmer together for 5-10 minutes (watch it, it can bubble over), remove from heat and allow to cool for a few minutes.
Take off heat and dip the meat in.


Enjoy!
