Marinate the pork chop. Using a meat hammer, pound the pork chop for 15 seconds each side. Put the pork chops in a mixing bowl and marinate with kalamansi juice, ground black pepper, and 1 tsp salt, or 15 minutes.

Prepare the pork chop breading mix. In a separate mixing bowl, add the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, ½ tsp of iodized salt, garlic powder, onion powder, Spanish paprika, black pepper powder, and Chinese five spice. If you want to make it spicy, just add some cayenne or chili powder. Mix it well using a whisk or fork. Mix it for 1 minute, until all ingredients are well combined.

Cook the Breaded Pork Chop. Coat the marinated pork chop with the homemade breading mix, and make sure all the surface is coated properly. Shake off excess breading mix. Heat up a frying pan, and add cooking oil, deep enough to submerge the breaded pork chops. Get it nice and hot under medium heat for 3 minutes, then add the pork chops. Cook for 5 minutes, then let it sit for a minute, before cutting into it.
