Macau Pork Chop Bun

This mouthwatering pork chop sandwich is a flavor-packed delight, combining tender, juicy pork with aromatic ginger, garlic, and scallion marinade for an irresistible umami punch. The secret lies in the homemade blended juice marinade—ginger, garlic, onion, and scallion blended into a smooth mixture, then mixed with soy sauce, cornstarch, and sugar to create a savory-sweet glaze that tenderizes the pork. Pounded thin for maximum tenderness, the pork chop is pan-fried to golden perfection in butter and oil for a crispy exterior. Toasted small meal buns are layered with buttery onion rings, succulent pork, and fresh lettuce for the ultimate balance of textures and flavors. Perfect for a hearty lunch or dinner, this sandwich brings together bold Asian-inspired marinades with comforting, buttery goodness. Every bite delivers a satisfying crunch, juicy meat, and a burst of savory-sweet deliciousness!
