Ingredients
1 pound Pork cutlets or thin boneless pork chops
1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
1 tablespoon Red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Dried oregano
2 Garlic cloves, peeled and minced
½ teaspoon Salt
¼ teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
In a large glass or ceramic bowl, or a sealed plastic bag, combine the pork cutlets, vegetable oil, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, and minced garlic. Stir or massage the mixture until all pork pieces are well coated with the marinade.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or seal the bag tightly. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to fully infuse into the pork.
Remove the marinated pork from the refrigerator. Pat the pieces dry with paper towels and season both sides evenly with salt and black pepper.
Heat a large skillet over high heat until very hot, about 2-3 minutes.
Carefully place the pork pieces into the dry, hot skillet, adding them one at a time with approximately 30 seconds between each addition to ensure even cooking and browning.
Cook the pork for about 7 minutes on the first side without moving it, until it develops a golden-brown, crispy exterior. Flip each piece and cook for another 7 minutes on the second side until golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 145°F at the thickest part.
Transfer the cooked pork chops to a serving platter and serve immediately while hot.
