*This recipe was developed for the Gourmet Sizzler® Electric Griddle (EA-BDC10). Adjustments may be necessary when using other models.

1

If the pork is thick, cover with plastic wrap and pound to make them under 1/8" thick.

2

Coat pork with corn starch then dust off the excess.

3

Turn the Gourmet Sizzler® Electric Griddle temperature control dial to 400ºF and preheat for about 5 minutes. When preheating completes, pour vegetable oil.

4

Place chops on the pan and cook for 3 minutes or until the pork is halfway done.

5

Flip pork and cook for another minute, then remove the pork from the pan and set aside.

6

Add sake, soy sauce, mirin and sugar to the pan.

7

When the sauce turns bubbly, place the pork back into the pan and coat well with the sauce.

8

Add ginger juice to the pan and turn heat off. Plate and serve with cabbage while pork is hot.
