Is it okay for oven also?

It's nice to cook in the oven too.

[@jnettesabado9183]

Can i use pork neck instead of porkchop?

[@TasteofAsianFood]

Any flat piece of meat that is easy to pan fry should be OK.

[@ajl8615]

Without garlic and onion powder marinade isn't it plain?

[@spyk1486]

Not with 5 spice powder.

[@iamnotfooled]

The 5 spice powder gives it taste. Would not be plain
