Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces pork steaks
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, soy sauce, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, onion powder, black pepper, and salt to create a marinade.
Place the pork steaks in a large, resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the pork and ensure all the pieces are evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for more flavor).
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the butter and let it melt until it begins to sizzle.
Remove the pork steaks from the marinade and let any excess drip off. Reserve the marinade for later use.
Place the pork steaks into the hot skillet or grill pan, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until a golden-brown crust forms.
Reduce the heat to medium and add the reserved marinade to the skillet. Cover and let the pork steaks simmer for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are fully cooked and reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Once the pork steaks are done, remove them from the skillet and let them rest on a plate, loosely covered with foil, for 5 minutes.
Serve the pork steaks hot, garnished with fresh parsley, if desired. Pair with mashed potatoes, rice, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
