Fry the pork chops in batches for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

Step 9

While the pork chops are cooking, mix soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, sugar-free ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and stevia in a small bowl to make the sauce.
